Sending Methods

This section explains the two main sending methods: Memory sending and Manual sending via the handset.

Memory Sending

Memory sending is a quick and easy way to send a document. As the FAX scans the first page of a multipage document into its memory, it begins calling the other party and transmitting the information even as the remaining pages are being scanned.

Since the FAX is multitasking, you can even scan a document into memory while performing other tasks.

The FAX has enough memory to store up to approximately 256 pages* (fewer if the document contains many graphics or particularly dense text).

Follow this procedure to send a document using memory sending:

Sending Faxes

1Load the document, face down in the ADF (p. 4-3).

•To adjust the resolution and contrast, see pp. 7-2, 7-3.

•You may be unable to send if the memory

100%used (shown in the LCD) is close to

. Use manual sending via the handset instead (p. 7-6).

2Dial the other party’s fax number.

•For dialling methods, see p. 7-4.

•If you enter the wrong number, press Stop, then enter the correct number.

•If you are connected to a PBX and need to first dial an outside line access number (“9”, for example), add a pause after that number by pressing Redial/Pause (p. 9-2).
