Muratec Series 41500E Using memory transmission, Set Dialing Pause Time, Memory Tx Program/Enter

Getting started

Note: To avoid confusing the Light and Dark settings, just remember —

“Light lightens” and “Dark darkens” — to keep it straight.

Entering a pause character when dialing

Some long-distance systems require dialing pauses, and pauses can also be useful when you’re dialing through special telephone exchanges.

To insert a pause character, just press REDIAL/PAUSE after you’ve dialed at least one other character. -/(the pause character) will appear on the display.

Each pause entered lasts for a factory-set two seconds (see “Changing the pause length,” below, for instructions to change this setting).

For example, if the pause is at the factory setting, pressing 9, REDIAL/PAUSE, 19725552009 dials 9 [2-second pause] 1 9 7 2 5 5 5 2 0 0 9.

Important: Each pause uses two of the characters you’re allowed in a number.

Changing the pause length

The pause is set by the factory to last two seconds, but you can set it to last as long as ten seconds if necessary. To change the pause length:

1 Press PROGRAM, J, 0, 4, ENTER.

Set Dialing Pause

Time (02-10):02

2 Use the numeric keypad to enter the length you want for the dialing pause. Here, we’ve chosen nine seconds.

Set Dialing Pause

Time (02-10):09

Note: The length setting requires two digits. Always enter a leading zero for lengths less than 10 seconds.

3 Press ENTER to save the setting.

Potential problems with call-waiting and voice mail

Telephone call-waiting signals can stop fax transmission and reception. And any service — such as voice mail — which may intercept your calls can keep your fax machine from receiving fax calls.

If you use only one line for both phone and fax, consult your telephone company to see how you can temporarily disable call-waiting or voice mail while using the fax machine.

Using memory transmission

Your fax machine has a great memory! Take advantage of it, and you could:

Save Time. By using your fax machine’s memory, you won’t have to wait for your machine while it completes the transmission. Simply scan your document into your fax machine’s memory, and you can walk away with your original in hand.

Save Money. If you’re transmitting to another memory-equipped 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 after the call has ended.) This cuts your actual on-line time to a minimum.

Save Even More Money. Set up a delayed command (see pages 2.17–2.19) to send your document after hours, and you can save more money, because the line charges will be cheaper.

You can set your fax to transmit from memory as the default.

Note: Whether you decide to send your documents from memory or manually, you can override that choice one transmission at a time by pressing

MEMORY TRANSMIT before you send your document. After completing the communication, your fax will return to the default setting.

Note: Some documents use up memory more quickly than others. They include documents with many pages and those with many dark areas. When the machine’s memory is full, it can transmit only through the document feeder.

Note: When you use the flatbed scanner, the machine always uses memory trans- mission.

To make memory transmission the default:

1	Press		/PROGRAM, J, 1, 3, ENTER.
		Memory Tx		:On
			Program/Enter
2
	Press		or /PROGRAM until the mode you want appears.
	In this example, we’ve chosen Off.
		Memory Tx		:Off
			Program/Enter
3
	Press ENTER to save the setting.
	If the MEMORY TRANSMIT light glows, memory transmission is on.

If the MEMORY TRANSMIT light doesn’t glow, memory transmission is off.
