TRANSFERRING RECEIVED FAXES TO ANOTHER MACHINE
WHEN PRINTING IS NOT POSSIBLE (FORWARDING FUNCTION)
When printing is not possible because of a paper, toner, or other problem, you can transfer received faxes to another
fax machine if that machine has been appropriately programmed in your machine. This function can be conveniently
used in an office or other workplace where there is another fax machine connected to a different phone line. When a
fax has been received to memory, the DATA light to the right of the IMAGE SEND key (See "If received data cannot
be printed" on page 2-10.) blinks.
USING THE TRANSFER FUNCTION
Program the fax number of the transfer destination
Use the key operator program to program the number of the transfer destination. (See "Set the telephone number for
data forwarding" on page 8-9.) Only one fax number can be programmed. The transfer function cannot be used unless
a number is programmed.
Transferring received data
1 Press the [CUSTOM SETTING] key and then
touch the [FAX DATA RECEIVE/FORWARD] key.
2 Touch the [FAX DATA FORWARD] key.
If there is no data to
transfer or a transfer
number has not been
programmed (See "Set
the telephone number
for data forwarding" on
page 8-9.), a message
will appear and transfer
will not be possible.
3 Touch the [YES] key.
The machine
automatically dials the
transfer destination
programmed with the
key operator program
and begins transfer.
If you do not wish to
transfer the data, touch
the [NO] key.
