Section 2 Fax Operation (Basic)
(5) Duplex Fax Reception
This facsimile is equipped with automatic duplex (2-sided) printing
capabilities. With this function, it is possible to print incoming faxes on
both the front and reverse sides of the paper. Using both paper sides,
it is possible to reduce the amount of paper used as well as lower
costs.
Additionally, in comparison to normal fax reception, managing and
maintaining received faxes is easier since the amount of paper used
is reduced by half.
In order to use Duplex fax reception, turn Duplex fax reception ON in
“Duplex fax reception ON/OFF”, page 9-8.
* If an uneven number of documents is received, or if the last page of
a transmission ends on the front side of the paper, there will be
nothing printed on the reverse side of that paper. The next
document that is received will be printed on the front side of a new
sheet of paper.
* Split page reception (when a received document is divided and
printed onto multiple sheets of paper because the received page
was larger than the paper in the cassette) may not be used together
with Duplex fax reception.
(6) Batch Transmission
It is possible to simultaneously transmit all of the transmissions stored
in memory and designated for the same destination. This function
eliminates the need for the same destination to be dialled multiple
times, thereby lowering communication costs.
* Batch transmission is only possible when the following conditions
have been met.
• The destination fax number is the same for each scheduled
transmission.
• For communications which use the timer, the designated time is
the same.
• The SUB (subaddress) and SID (subaddress ID) are the same (for
F-Code based transmissions).
• The same chain dial key is used (for transmissions using a chain
dial key).
• The transmission is scheduled from the same department (the
same access code is used).
* Batch transmission is not available for the following:
• When using Broadcast transmission to send documents to multiple
destinations.
• Polling communications
• Reverse polling communications
• Encryption transmissions
• Transmissions awaiting redialling
(7) ECM (Error Correction Mode) Communication
When attempting a fax communication in areas with poor telephone
line quality, the ECM capabilities of this facsimile will verify data
transfer with the other party’s fax to eliminate possible errors.
However, to enable ECM communication, the other party’s fax must
also possesses ECM communication capabilities.
Therefore, the facsimile will automatically determine whether or not
ECM communication will be used, with no user intervention or
settings required.
(8) Password Check Reception (Restricted
Communication)
This facsimile possesses the Password Check reception function
which, when turned ON, will allow you to limit reception of an
incoming call from only those facsimiles that are registered under one
of your abbreviated numbers or one-touch keys.
In order to use Password Check reception, it is necessary to register the
desired fax numbers under abbreviated numbers and/or one-touch keys
and turn Password Check reception ON.
(Refer to “Password Check Reception ON/OFF”, page 9-5, “One-
Touch Keys”, page 2-19, and “Abbreviated Numbers”, page 2-22.)
* Password Check reception is not applicable to numbers registered
under program keys, group dial keys or chain dial keys.
* Password Check reception is applicable for use with Polling
transmission, but not with Polling reception.
(9) Auto Shut-Off Function
When there is no operation of or activity with this fax for a designated
period of time, the Auto shut-off function will engage for energy
saving purposes and the fixing section heater and fan inside the unit
will shut down.
If a fax comes in while the Auto shut-off function is engaged, the
incoming data will be stored temporarily in memory (refer to
“(11) Memory reception”, below) from where it will be printed out
automatically once warm up is completed. The amount of time the fax
will wait before engaging the Auto shut-off function can be adjusted to
between 5 and 120 minutes in the “Auto Shut-Off Time” setting.
(Refer to page 9-10.)
* The factory default setting is 5 minutes.
(10) Auto Clear Function
The message display will revert to the initial mode if no action is
carried out on the facsimile for 1 minute during any procedure.
(11) Memory Reception
When print out is not possible because paper has run out or paper
jams, incoming data will be stored temporarily in memory from where
it will be printed out automatically once printing is enabled. The
MEMORY indicator will light whenever data has been stored in
memory in this way.
(12) Memory Back-Up Function
If, for any reason, power to the facsimile is disconnected or lost, the
back-up battery in this unit will protect all data related to documents
already received into imaging memory, or awaiting transmission, for
up to 30 minutes (at least 8 MB of optional memory must be installed
[totalling 11.25 MB of memory in the unit]).
Thus, if power is restored to the facsimile within that time period,
those communications that were scheduled and waiting in memory
prior to the failure will be protected in their original state. If power
cannot be restored in time and data is lost, a Power failure report will
be automatically printed out once power is restored to the facsimile in
order to confirm what information was lost.
* When the optional Dual Line Kit is installed with 16 MB of optional
memory (2 x 8 MB [totalling 20.5 MB of memory in the unit]), the
data for documents being received into imaging memory or awaiting
transmission will be protected for 15 minutes.
* The actual length of time the back-up battery will protect the data in
memory may differ depending upon the conditions and environment
of use of this facsimile.
* Depending upon certain conditions in the facsimile, it is possible
that a portion of received data may be lost. Ask the other party to
retransmit any documents for which data was lost.
