Personal Boxes

 

This function lets you set up the machine so that incoming messages addressed to certain users are stored in memory instead of being printed out immediately.

Each user must be assigned a SUB Code (Personal Code) that has been designated as a Personal Box before- hand. When the other party sends their message, they specify the SUB Code of the receiver. When the message is re- ceived, it is stored in the Personal Box with the matching SUB Code. In order to print a received message.

This enables several individuals or departments to share a single fax machine yet be able to differentiate between messages. Furthermore, if you specify a receiver for the Personal Box, instead of being stored in memory, incoming messages with this SUB Code appended are forwarded directly to the destination you specify. You can specify a fax number, e-mail address or IP-Fax destination as the receiver. See p.181 “Programming/changing Personal Boxes” for details on programming receivers.

To be able to receive messages into a Personal Box you must inform the sender of the SUB Code pro- grammed for that Personal Box and ask them to send the message using SUB Code Transmission with that SUB Code. See p.49 “SUB Code”.

When messages have been re- ceived into Personal Boxes, the Confidential Reception/Memory Lock indicator lights and the Con- fidential File Report is printed. See p.37 “Confidential File Report”.

If a receiver is assigned, the deliv- ered document is deleted.

If a receiver is not assigned, print these messages. See p.41 “Printing Personal Box Messages”.

SUB Code and SEP Code

SUB Code and SEP Code are IDs consisting of up to 20 digits, and can include numbers, #, *, and spaces. To use this function, you must program a box and SUB/SEP Code beforehand. The other party can send messages to, and retrieve stored messages from, this box us- ing the code.

Note

This function is not available when you have set received documents to be delivered to the network de- livery server.
