window Companion Manager and the icon appears in the task bar.

Follow-up of fax communications

Follow-up of fax communications is by means of:

•an outbox,

•an inbox,

•a sent item memory,

•an outbox log,

•an inbox log.

These services enable you to always know exactly what communications are taking place on the terminal, whether sending or receiving.

The outbox and inbox logs are automatically printed when their contents fill a page. After automatic printout, the terminal creates a new log.

The outbox

In the fax outbox, there are the following:

•the requests being sent,

•the send later requests,

•the requests for which one or more send attempts have already been made, and which will soon be redialed,

•the rejected requests (calls not put through).

The requests are classed in the order in which they are executed.

The rejected requests are filed at the end of the list so that they are more accessible if you want to work with them (request a new send) or delete them.
