RECEIVING A FAX

RECEIVING A FAX AUTOMATICALLY

When the reception mode is set to "Auto Reception", the machine will receive and print faxes automatically.

  • When fax reception is in progress, it is possible to reserve a transmission by performing the transmission in memory transmission mode.
    • FAX TRANSMISSION METHODS
  • The information indicator blinks in white from the start of fax reception until printing is completed.
  • To print received faxes, make sure that the required paper is loaded into the machine's paper trays.
    • When a fax smaller than A4 (8-1/2" x 11") size is received, the size of the paper used for printing will vary depending on the orientation (vertical or horizontal) in which the sender placed the original.
  • If a print job such as the copy or printer function has already been executed when printing the received data, the first reserved job is printed before the received data.
  • Received faxes will not be printed when the machine cannot print due to an error condition such as out of paper, out of toner, or a paper misfeed. The faxes will be printed automatically when the error condition is cleared. (If the paper has run out, add paper and tap on the touch panel.)
  • You can check current fax reception mode in the Receive Settings screen.
  • To switch between auto reception and manual reception modes:
    • Set in Receive Settings.

  • Distinctive Ring Detection
    • If multiple telephone numbers have been assigned to your telephone line, the number called can be identified by its ringing pattern. By using one number for voice calls and another number for faxes, you can tell which type of call you are receiving by the ringing pattern. You can set your machine to automatically receive faxes when your fax number is called by setting the pattern that corresponds to your fax number.
