Sending Methods
This section explains the two main sending methods: Memory sending and Manual
sending via the handset .
Memory Sending
Memory sending is a quick and easy way to send a document. As the FAX scans the
first page of a multipage document into its memory, it begins calling the other party and
transmitting the information even as the remaining pages are being scanned.
Since the FAX is multitasking, you can even scan a document into memory while
performing other tasks.
The FAX has enough memory to store up to approximately 256 pages* (fewer if the
document contains many graphics or particularly dense text).
Follow this procedure to send a document using memory sending:
1
Load the document, face down in the
Ex:
ADF (

p. 4-3).
• To adjust the resolution and contrast,
(Currently used memory)
see pp. 7-2, 7-3.
• You may be unable to send if the
memory used (shown in the LCD) is (Standby to scan)
close to 100% . Use manual sending via
the handset instead (

p. 7-6).
2
Dial the other party’s fax number.
Ex:
• For dialling methods, see p. 7-4.
• If you enter the wrong number, press
Stop , then enter the correct number.
• If you are connected to a PBX and need
to first dial an outside line access
number (“9”, for example), add a pause
after that number by pressing
Redial/Pause (

p. 9-2).
