Description of transmission modes
• Memory transmission
In this mode, the machine scans several originals into memory and sends them all at once. This
is convenient when you are in a hurry and want to remove the document from the machine. In
this mode, you can send a fax to multiple destinations. If the [Auto Redial] under [Fax TX
Settings] is enabled, the machine redials the fax destination automatically when the line is
busy or a transmission error occurs. The number of redial attempts is set to two or three in five-
minute intervals, depending on the [Country] setting under [Admin. Tools]. You can disable
[Auto Redial] under [Fax Features]. For details, see page 172 "Fax Features Settings".
• Immediate transmission
In this mode, the machine scans the original and faxes it simultaneously. This is convenient
when you want to send an original quickly or when you want to check the destination you are
sending to. The original is not stored in memory. You can only specify one destination. If fax is
not received normally, an error message appears on the control panel.
