Storing a document for batch transmission

Your fax machine can store up to 40 documents (as opposed to pages) in each batch box until the date and time you designate for a batch transmission.

Note: For this operation to work, two things must be true:

The batch box must exist on your fax machine.

You must know the batch box’s one-digit number (1–5).

To store a document in a batch box for batch transmission:

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. Insert the document and make any necessary adjustments as usual.

3. Press COMMUNICATION OPTIONS five times and then press ENTER. The display will show:

Enter Box No. _

4. Use the numeric keypad to enter the one-digit number for the batch box you wish to use. Here, we’ve entered 5 to indicate batch box 5.

Box: 5 File: 00

Important: The file numbers (shown above as 00) tells you how many documents are in this batch box. Your machine numbers files 00–39 . You need to know a file’s number to erase or print it on your fax. See also “Printing a list of stored batch documents,” next column.

6. Press START. If it wasn’t already doing so due to a previous command, the machine will display “Reserved” on the top line of the display. This means the document is stored in memory.
