Receive faxes

You can receive faxes automatically or manually.

Note: If you receive a legal-size or larger fax and the

printer is not currently set to use legal-size paper, the printer reduces the fax so that it fits on the paper that is loaded. If you have disabled the Automatic Reduction feature, the printer prints the fax on two pages.

If you are copying a document when a fax arrives, the fax is stored in the printer’s memory until the copying finishes. As a result, the number of fax pages that can be stored in memory might be reduced.
