Customizing the Transmission Verification Report

You can use the Transmission Report as proof that you sent a fax. This report lists the time and date of transmission and whether the transmission was successful (OK). If you select ON or ON+IMAGE, the report will print for every fax you send.

Note When the feature is OFF, the report prints only if a transmission error prevented delivery (NG).

If you typically send multiple faxes to the same destinations, you may need more than the job numbers to know which faxes you must send again. Selecting OFF+IMAGE will print a portion of the fax’s first page on the report to help you remember.
