Digital full colour multifunctional system BP-C131WD

The methods that can be used to send a fax from the machine are described below. Select the method that best suits your needs.

To fax a large number of sheet originals:

Use the automatic document feeder.
The originals will be scanned into memory and then transmitted (memory transmission).
When multiple original sheets are placed in line idle state, they will be sent in sequence from the scanned page in parallel with the scanning process (Quick On Line Sending).
If transmission cannot begin immediately because the line is in use, all pages will be scanned and stored in memory.

Storing a fax job
If transmission cannot begin immediately because the line is in use, all pages will be scanned and stored in memory. If you want to attempt to send a fax while another job is in progress, you can store the fax job. To check the stored fax job, display the job status screen.
FAX JOBS

If memory becomes full while the first original page is being scanned, transmission will stop.

In the following situations, the transmission will be automatically reserved (memory transmission)

When the line is busy or a communication error occurs and automatic resending is enabled.

WHEN A COMMUNICATION ERROR OCCURS

The line of the machine will be busy if another fax is being sent, received, or if the machine is in the busy state.
Another fax transmission was reserved ahead of your fax.
One of the following functions is being used for transmission.

Broadcast transmission, Timer transmission

The document glass is being used (except when the speaker is being used to dial).

To disable the Quick On Line Sending setting:
In the Web page, select [System Settings] → [Image Send Settings] → [Fax Settings] → [Send Settings] → [Quick On Line Sending].
If you disable this setting, transmission will not begin until all pages have been scanned. Note that this setting does not apply to manual transmission.

To fax thick originals or pages of a book:

Place the original on the document glass.
USING THE DOCUMENT GLASS FOR TRANSMISSION

Quick On Line Sending is not available when a fax is being sent from the document glass.
When the document glass is used, multiple original pages cannot be scanned at a time. In this case, the original pages can be separated into multiple times of scanning.

If you wish to send a fax ahead of other previously reserved fax transmissions:

Send the fax in direct transmission mode. The original is transmitted directly to the receiving fax machine without being scanned into memory.
When direct transmission mode is used, transmission will begin as soon as the transmission in progress is completed (ahead of any previously reserved transmissions).
Tap the menu icon and then the [Communication Settings] key to change the setting to direct transmission.

If the line is busy when you send a fax, transmission will be attempted again automatically after a preset interval. This function only operates in memory transmission mode. In direct transmission mode or manual transmission mode, the transmission will be cancelled. Wait for a brief period and then try sending the fax again.

To cancel transmission:
Do so from the job status screen.
FAX JOBS

To set the number of recall attempts and the interval between attempts when the connection cannot be established because the line is busy, or for other reasons:
From the operation panel, select [System Settings] → [Fax Settings] → [Send Settings] → [Recall in Case of Line Busy] (In the Web page, select [System Settings] → [Image Send Settings] → [Fax Settings] → [Send Settings] → [Recall in Case of Line Busy]).
When this setting is enabled, note that the machine will not attempt the call again when manual transmission or direct transmission is used.

If a communication error occurs or the other fax machine does not answer the call within a preset period of time, transmission will automatically be attempted again after a preset interval. This function only operates in memory transmission mode.

Faxes sent by direct transmission or manual transmission are not automatically resent.

To cancel transmission:
Do so from the job status screen.
CANCEL A CURRENTLY JOB

To set the number of recall attempts and the interval between attempts when a transmission fails due to an error:
From the operation panel, select [System Settings] → [Fax Settings] → [Send Settings] → [Recall in Case of Communication Error] (In the Web page, select [System Settings] → [Image Send Settings] → [Fax Settings] → [Send Settings] → [Recall in Case of Communication Error]).

This mode displays a destination confirmation message when a fax is sent to prevent accidental transmission to the wrong destination. Set it in setting mode. If a fax is sent while this function is enabled, an address confirmation message will appear when the [Start] key is tapped.
The message that appears will vary depending on the method used to specify the destination.

After tapping the [Speaker] key while "Fax Dest. Confirmation Mode" is enabled, the destination cannot be specified using the [Address Book] key, [Direct Entry key, or [Sending History] key. However, it is possible to send through a telephone.

To display the destination confirmation message prior to fax transmission:
In "Settings", select [System Settings] → [Image Send Settings] → [Fax Settings] → [Default Settings] → [Fax Dest. Confirmation Mode].
