Getting started

To make memory transmission the default for transmissions from the ADF:

1. If the machine is in Fax mode, proceed to step 2.

If it is in Copy mode, press COPY/FAX to change to Fax mode.

2. Press PROGRAM, J, 1, 3, ENTER.

If the setting you see is acceptable, skip to step 4. Otherwise, proceed to step 3.

3. To change the setting, press PROGRAM once or twice. In this example, we’ve chosen Off.

Memory Tx: Off Program/Enter

Using memory transmission

Your fax machine has a great memory! And, because it does, it can finish fax jobs more quickly than otherwise would be possible.

By automatically scanning your fax document into, then transmitting from, its memory — rather than transmitting each part of the scan only as quickly as the receiving fax machine can receive it — your fax machine can hand you back your original document more rapidly.

And here’s a real money saver on long distance fax calls: if you’re transmitting to another memory-equipped Muratec fax machine, your machine will send the document directly into the other machine’s memory and hang up! (The receiving machine then prints out your message from its memory.) This cuts your actual on- line time to a minimum.

Better still: set up a delayed command (see pages 2.21–2.23) to send your document to that other Muratec fax machine after hours, and you’ll save two ways on the call: not only will the call itself be short, but also the line charges will be cheaper!

You can set your fax machine always to transmit from memory as a default.

Note: Whichever choice you make, you can override that choice one transmission at a time by pressing MEMORY TRANSMIT. (However, see the “Important” item, below.) After completing the communication, your fax machine will return to your desired transmission setting.

Note: Although it’s probably best to decide to transmit from memory, be aware that certain types of documents can quickly exhaust even your machine’s large memory supply. Obviously, documents with large numbers of pages qualify; so do documents with lots of dark areas, since darker pages create more data for your fax machine to “remember” and send. When the machine’s memory supply is full, it can transmit only in normal (i. e., non- memory) mode.

Important: When you transmit using the FBS, your machine always transmits from memory. This choice is available only when you transmit using the ADF.
