Real time transmission

When you are sending a fax, the machine will scan the document into the memory before sending. Then, as soon as the telephone line is free, the machine will start dialing and sending.

If the memory is full and you are sending a black & white fax from the ADF, the machine will send the document in real time (even if Real Time TX is set to Off). Color faxes and faxes from the scanner glass cannot be sent until you clear some of the memory.

Sometimes, you may want to send an important document immediately, without waiting for memory transmission. You can turn on Real Time TX.
