Printing a Reduced Incoming Document

You can always reduce the size of an incoming fax to a fixed percentage with your MFC. If you choose AUTO, the MFC chooses the level of reduction for you.

1Press Menu, 1, 2, 5. The screen displays

5.REDUCTION

2Use or to select the reduction ratio you want— AUTO, 100%, 93% or 87%. Choose 100% if you don’t want a reduction.

3Press Set when the screen displays your selection.

4Press Stop to exit.

If you receive faxes that are split on two pages, change the reduction to AUTO ––OR–– choose a lower reduction percentage.

NOTE: ■ When you use Auto Reduction to reduce incoming documents to fit on one page of recording paper, you can do so only as long as the original document is not longer than 35 cm. If the original is longer than 35 cm, the data will not be reduced and will carry over to print on a second page.

■When you use Auto Reduction and you receive an incoming document that is smaller than your recording paper, no reduction will take place, and you will get the same size recorded as the original.

Reception into Memory

As soon as the paper cassette becomes empty during fax reception, the screen will display CHECK PAPER; please put some paper in the paper cassette (see chap. 2).

If the MEMORY RECEPTION function is ON at this time…

The current fax reception will continue, with the remaining page(s) being stored in memory, subject to available memory. Subsequent incoming faxes will also be stored into memory until the memory is full, following which no further incoming fax calls will be automatically answered; all data will be printed as soon as fresh paper is put in the paper cassette.
