Sending a Fax after Speaking on Telephone
If you want to speak to the recipient before sending a fax, or if the recipient does not have a fax machine
that can receive faxes automatically, send a fax manually after speaking to the recipient on the telephone.
Important
It may be possible that faxes will reach unintended recipients due to the misdialing or incorrect
registration of fax/telephone numbers. When you send important documents, it is recommended
that you send them after speaking on the telephone. See below for the procedure.
With manual transmission, you cannot use the Platen Glass to load documents.
To speak to the recipient before sending a fax, you need to connect a telephone to the machine.
Refer to your setup manual for instructions on how to connect the telephone to the machine.
1. Load documents in the ADF, then lift the handset of the telephone connected to the
machine.
2. Use the telephone to dial the recipient's fax/telephone number.
3. Speak to the recipient.
If you hear a high-pitched signal instead of the recipient's voice, go to step 5.
4. Ask the recipient to set the recipient's fax machine to receive faxes.
5. When you hear a high-pitched signal, press the
Color button for color transmission,
or the
Black button for black & white transmission.
Important
Color transmission is available only when the recipient's fax machine supports color faxing.
6. Hang up the handset.
Note
To cancel a fax transmission, press the Stop button. To cancel a fax transmission while it is in
progress, press the Stop button, then follow the instructions on the LCD.
If documents remain in the ADF after the Stop button is pressed while scanning is in progress,
Document in ADF. Press OK to eject document. is displayed on the LCD. Press the OK button
and follow the instructions on the LCD to automatically feed out the remaining documents.
