2.2.7 PROTOCOL REFERENCE
DIRECT RECEPTION IN LOW MEMORY CONDITIONS
When the machine detects an incoming fax call while in the following conditions,
the machine receives the fax in direct reception mode (the data goes straight to
the printer without storage in memory).
•
Available SAF memory is lower than 35% (without optional memory)
•
Available SAF memory is lower than 10% (with optional memory)
In these cases, if the machine is not printing, the machine answers the call using
DIS/NSF signals with “I/O rate = 20 ms/line” and “modem rate = 4,800 bps”
parameters. If the machine is printing, it does not answer the call.
NOTE:
1) In Germany, the machine does not answer a call in the above memory
conditions.
2) If the machine’s available memory is above the threshold, the machine
receives the fax message in memory reception mode.
3) Even if the amount of memory falls below the threshold while receiving
a fax message, the machine continues memory reception.
