Sending a Fax by Automatic Dialing
Dual Access
The fax machine features full dual access, which means that you can
load a document and dial by automatic dialing even when the fax
machine is occupied with another operation. After you dial, your
document will be immediately scanned into memory and then
transmitted once all previously set operations have been completed.
If more than one document has been scanned into memory for
transmission, the documents will be transmitted in the order in which
they were scanned. If you have an urgent transmission and do not
want to wait until previously scanned documents are transmitted, you
can press the PRIORITY key after loading your document. Your
document will be transmitted immediately after the current document
has completed transmission.
If you don’t want the document to be transmitted from memory, you
can press the DOCUMENT key after loading the document. In this
case, the document will not be scanned until all previously set
operations are completed and the connection to the receiving party is
established. (To transmit the document ahead of any documents
waiting in memory for transmission, press the PRIORITY key.)
