Rejecting Unsolicited Fax Messages Power Failures and Memory

The machine provides a closed network function that allows refusal of unsolicited faxes such as advertising. If activated, when there is an incoming call, the machine compares the TSI (CIG) with the last four digits of the programmed Speed Dial numbers. If there is no match, the incoming call is refused. The machine can also be set to neither send nor receive faxes form locations whose telephone numbers are not programmed into the speed Dial memory.

The available settings are:

∙Limited reception (RX)

∙Limited transmission and reception (TX/RX

∙No limitations (OFF).

To set a closed network:

1Press Menu/Exit to enter the menu.

2Input speed access number 21 (Closed Network); wait.

3When Closed Network displays, press ▼ or ▲ to select a setting, press Enter.

4Press Menu/Exit to return to standby mode.

Your fax machine is equipped with a battery to prevent the loss of data stored in memory at the time of a power outage. The typical memory-backup time with a fully charged battery is 72 hours. If data is still held in memory at the time of power restoration, the machine will continue operations from the point when power was lost. If the data in memory has been lost at the time of power restoration, the machine prints out a Power Outage Report. Use this report to determine which received messages you may have lost, and which transmissions you may have to resend.
