Redialing When the Line is Busy

There are two methods of redialing: manual redialing and automatic redialing. This section explains these two methods.

„Manual Redialing

Press [Redial] to dial the last number you dialed with the numeric buttons*. (This starts redialing regardless of whether automatic redialing is enabled.)

*This setting is only available when you dialed with the numeric buttons.

zCanceling Manual Redialing

To cancel manual redialing, press [Stop/Reset]. You may then need to press [Start/Copy] for a few seconds to feed out the document. See “Jams in the ADF” on page 60.

„Automatic Redialing

zWhat is Automatic Redialing?

When you are sending a document and the receiving party’s line is busy, the fax waits the specified time and then dials the same number again. You can set the fax to redial several times if previous attempts fail because of a busy signal.

Automatic redialing can be turned off and on. The number of redialing attempts and the time interval between attempts can also be adjusted (see page 46).

If all redialing attempts are unsuccessful, the fax will cancel the transmission. You can set the fax to print the ERROR TX REPORT to remind you that the transmission was not completed (see page 45).

When automatic redialing is in use, the LCD displays <AUTO REDIAL> while it is waiting to redial.

z Canceling Automatic Redialing

Note

If you want to cancel a memory-sending transmission while the fax is waiting to redial, you will have to delete the document from memory (see page 40).

zWhether or not the fax redials automatically.
