Fax Special Functions
Memory
Your machine has a memory area that can be used to store both incoming and outgoing
documents.
Approximately 120 pages of average content can be held in memory for transmission. Fewer
pages can be held if any of the pages were scanned using fine or superfine resolution, or if
document content is greater than average.
Memory Backup
The machine uses a lithium-ion battery to keep automatic dialing numbers and other programmed
data in memory when the power is turned off (when the machine is unplugged). Battery power is
consumed primarily when the power is turned off. With the power kept continuously off, the life of
the battery is about 5 years. If the battery dies, have your dealer or retailer replace it. Do not try
to replace it yourself.
When documents are stored in memory, do not turn the power off (by unplugging the power
cable). If power to the machine is cut off due to a power shortage or other causes, the fax
memory data will be kept for approximately one hour. However, if power to the machine is cut off
within 10 minutes of it being turned on, fax memory data may not be saved.
Substitute Reception into Memory
This is a back-up function that is automatically activated if your machine runs out of paper, the
toner cartridge needs replacement, or the paper jams.
The message “FAX RX IN MEMORY” will only appear in the display at the time the document is
initially received into memory. After reception is complete, one of the following messages,
“REPLACE TONER,” or “PAPER JAM” will appear in the display. When you add paper (and set
the paper size), replace the toner cartridge, or clear the jam, the stored documents will
automatically be printed out.
If you received documents in memory because the machine ran out of paper, be sure to add
paper which is the same size as the paper previously used. If not, the document print-out size
may not match the size of the printing paper.
Caution:
If documents received in memory are lost due to a power failure or other interruption in
the power supply, a POWER FAIL REPORT will be printed out when the power is restored. This
gives available information about the faxes lost, including the fax numbers of the transmitting
machines.
