Settings" > "Fax Settings" > "Fax Default Settings" >

Is a busy signal received?
If a busy signal is received, the transmission is 
temporarily canceled and then automatically 
re-attempted after a brief interval. (Factory default 
setting: 2 attempts, 3 min. intervals)

Settings" > "Fax Settings" > "Fax Send Settings" >

To cancel the transmission, press the [JOB STATUS] 
key, touch the key of the job that you wish to cancel, 
and then touch the [Stop/Delete] key. A message 
appears to confirm the cancelation. Touch the [Yes] 
key.
Did a communication error occur?
If an error occurs that prevents transmission, the 
transmission is temporarily canceled and then 
automatically re-attempted after a brief interval. (Factory 
default setting: 3 min. intervals)
➞ System Settings (Administrator) > "Image Send
Settings" > "Fax Settings" > "Fax Send Settings" > 
"Recall in Case of Communication Error"
To cancel the transmission, press the [JOB STATUS] 
key, touch the key of the job that you wish to cancel,

The machine supports error correction mode (ECM) and 
is configured to automatically resend any part of a fax 
that is distorted due to noise on the line.

Does a message appear indicating that 
the memory is full?
If the memory becomes full, the transmission will be 
canceled. Divide the originals into sets and fax each set 
separately, or use direct transmission.
