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 to
check whether the recipient can receive faxes.
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 to send a fax manually.
• With manual transmission, you cannot use the platen glass to load documents. Load the documents in
the ADF.
When loading document on the platen glass, send a fax with automatic transmission.
