Send a fax from memory

You can scan a black-and-white fax into memory and then send the fax from memory. This feature is useful if the fax number you are trying to reach is busy or temporarily unavailable. The device scans the originals into memory and sends them once it is able to connect to the receiving fax machine. After the device scans the pages into memory, you can immediately remove the originals from the document feeder tray.

NOTE: You can only send a black-and-white fax from memory.
