Reprint received faxes from memory

If you set the Backup Fax Reception mode to On, the received faxes are stored in memory, whether the device has an error condition or not.

NOTE: After the memory becomes full, the oldest, printed faxes are overwritten as new faxes are received. If all the stored faxes are unprinted, the device does not receive any fax calls until you print or delete the faxes from memory. You might also want to delete the faxes in memory for security or privacy purposes.

Depending on the sizes of the faxes in memory, you can reprint up to eight of the most recently printed faxes, if they are still in memory. For example, you might need to reprint your faxes if you lost the copy of your last printout.

To reprint faxes in memory from the device control panel

1.Make sure you have paper loaded in the input tray.

2.Press Setup.

3.Select Tools, and then select Reprint Faxes in Memory.

The faxes are printed in the reverse order from which they were received with the most recently received fax printed first, and so on.

4.If you want to stop reprinting the faxes in memory, press Cancel.

Poll to receive a fax

Polling allows the device to ask another fax machine to send a fax that it has in its queue. When you use the Poll to Receive feature, the device calls the designated fax machine and requests the fax from it. The designated fax machine must be set for polling and have a fax ready to send.

NOTE: The device does not support polling pass codes. Polling pass codes are a security feature that require the receiving fax machine to provide a pass code to the device it is polling in order to receive the fax. Make sure the device you are polling does not have a pass code set up (or has not changed the default pass code) or the device will not be able to receive the fax.

To set up poll to receive a fax from the device control panel

1.In the Fax area, press Fax repeatedly until How to Fax appears.

2.Press until Poll to Receive appears, and then press OK.
