BASIC OPERATIONS
F-code confidential fax reception
When a fax has been received by F-code confidential fax reception, an icon ( ) will appear in the base screen of
fax mode (message display (1) on page 9). The icon also appears in front of the box in the F-code confidential box
name screen in the display. (Step 6 on page 61) Print the received fax as explained in "PRINTING A DOCUMENT
RECEIVED TO AN F-CODE CONFIDENTIAL MEMORY BOX" (page 61).
If received data cannot be printed
If the machine runs out of paper or toner, or a paper misfeed occurs, or if the machine is printing a print or copy job,
received faxes will be held in memory until printing becomes possible. The received faxes are automatically printed
when printing is possible. When received faxes are held in memory, the DATA indicator at the upper right of the
[FAX] key blinks. You can also use the forwarding function to have another fax machine print the received faxes.
(See "FORWARDING FUNCTION" on page 49.)
In order to receive faxes, paper must be loaded in the paper tray. Load appropriate paper as explained in
"LOADING PAPER" in the Operation Guide for the machine. The difference between vertically and horizontally
oriented A4 and A4R paper (8-1/2" x 11" and 8-1/2" x 11"R paper), is automatically adjusted at the time of
reception, so there is no need to load paper in both orientations. However, when a fax smaller than A4 (8-1/2" x
11") is received, the size of paper used to print the fax will differ depending on the orientation (horizontal or
vertical) of the original in the sending machine.
• If you wish to use A5 (5-1/2" x 8-1/2") paper to receive faxes, load A5 (5-1/2" x 8-1/2") paper in tray 1 of the
machine and set the paper size to A5 (5-1/2" x 8-1/2"). Only tray 1 can be set to A5 (5-1/2" x 8-1/2") size.
• If you receive a fax that is larger than the loaded paper, the system setting uses "RECEIVED DATA PRINT
CONDITION" on page 109 to print it out in the following manner:
If "REDUCTION" is set up, the image is automatically reduced before printing.
*1
If "DIVISION" is set up, the image is split onto multiple sheets of paper and printed on them at actual size. *1
If "ACTUAL SIZE" is set up, the image is printed at actual size without being split. *2
*1 If the loaded paper is of the B5 size or less, the received image may not be printed depending upon the
width and length of the image data.
*2 The received image won't be printed until you load the paper larger than the actual size.
• In fax mode, printing is not possible on 11" x 17", 8-1/2" x 14", 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" sizes. (Among INCH sizes, only
8-1/2" x 11" and 8-1/2" x 11"R can be used for printing.) (If your machine uses inch-based paper sizes, A3, B4,
B5, B5R, and A5 size paper cannot be used in fax mode. (Among AB sizes, only A4 and A4R can be used for
printing.))
• If the paper runs out while a fax is being printed, printing will automatically continue using the closest size of
paper in another tray.
• If you change the size of paper loaded in a tray, change the tray's paper size setting.
• Faxes cannot be printed correctly if the actual paper size is different from the paper size setting. Be sure to set
the tray's paper size setting to the same paper size as the paper loaded in the tray. For example, if you receive
an A3 (11" x 17") size fax when B4 (8-1/2" x 14") paper is loaded in the tray and the tray's paper size setting is
A3 (11" x 17"), the fax will be printed on B4 (8-1/2" x 14") paper and part of the image may be cut off If the
paper loaded in the tray is larger than the paper size setting, paper larger than the recognized fax size will be
used. (A message prompting you to check the tray's paper size setting will appear.)
• Received faxes cannot be printed on paper inserted in the bypass tray.
