Basic operation
Memory transmission
Your fax machine has a great memory! Take advantage of it, and you could:
Save Time. By using your fax machine s memory, you won t have to wait for your
machine while it completes the transmission. Simply scan your document into your
machine s memory, and you can walk away with your original in hand.
Save Money.If you re transmitting to another memory-equipped fax machine, your
machine will send the document directly into the other machine s memory and hang up.
(The receiving machine then prints out your message from its memory after the call has
ended.) This cuts your actual on-line time to a minimum.
Save Even More Money.Set up a delayed transmission (see page 3.10) to send your
document after hours, and you can save more money, because the line charges will be
cheaper.
Note: Some documents use up memory more quickly than others. They include
documents with many pages and those with many dark areas. When the
machine s memory is full, it can transmit only through the document feeder.
The memory transmission is O n for default setting. However, you can turn off it for the
default. (See page 4.2.)
Helpful tip: If you frequently turn this feature on and off, you can set a Soft key (see
page 3.16) to turn on or off by simply pressing that key.
Memory overflow message
In normal memory transmission, if you ve stored too much information in your machine s
memory, a Memory Overflow message may appear on the
LCD :
This appears because (1) too many pages have been stored in the memory, or (2) the
pages that are stored have too much information on them for your fax machine to
remember.
If this message appears, press STA R T to tell your fax to keep as many pages in memory
as possible, or press C A N C E L to erase from memory all pages stored during the current
operation (but not previous operations).
Note: If you don t operate your machine within 60 seconds, the machine automatically
erase the document stored in the memory during the current operation.
Dividing a large document into smaller batches will help you avoid this error.
Quick memory transmission
Using Quick Memory transmission can save you time over standard memory transmis-
sions.
For a normal memory transmission, your fax: (1) scans your entire document into mem-
ory,
(2) dials the other fax machine, then (3) transmits the document.
But with Quick Memory transmission, your machine doesn t wait to scan all pages into
memory before dialing. After it scans the first page of your document, your machine
dials the call. While dialing, connecting and transmitting, your fax machine continues to
scan in the remaining pages of the document.
The quick memory transmission is O n for default setting. However, you can turn off it
for the default. (See page 4.2.)
Important: To use Quick Memory transmission, the memory transmission feature
must be turned on.
Real time transmission (Non-memory transmission)
In the following cases, the machine does not use its memory for sending a fax:
When you turned off the memory transmission
When you are sending a fax using MONITO R / CALL key or optional handset (see page
2.6.)
When the machine s memory is full
It is called Real time transmission mode. In this mode, the next page is not scanned in
while the current page is being transmitted.
Note: In this mode, only one destination can be dialed.
Note: Real time transmission available only when using the ADF . When transmitting
use the FBS glass, the machine always uses Memory transmission mode even if
you set the memory transmission to off .
