JOB STATUS

Sending a Fax by Automatic Dialing

Automatic redialing

If you use automatic dialing (including Direct Keypad Dialing) and the line is busy, the fax machine will automatically redial the number. The fax machine is set at the factory to make 2 redialing attempts at intervals of 5 minutes.

To cancel automatic redialing, press to show the job status in the display (make sure that RECALL MODE appears on the top line of the display and the number of the receiving party appears on the bottom line to the right),

STOP

and then press .

If desired, you can change the number of redial attempts with Option Setting 6, and the interval at which redialing takes place with Option Setting 7 (see page 108).

Under certain conditions (for example if a person answers the call on a telephone), automatic redialing may stop before the set number of redialing attempts are made.

Memory Retransmission

If a line error occurs during any type of memory transmission, your fax will automatically redial the number and attempt to complete the transmission. Retransmission will begin from the page which was being transmitted when the error occurred.

The fax machine has been set at the factory to make 10 attempts at retransmission, with each attempt made immediately after the previous attempt. If desired, you can change the number of attempts by changing Option Setting 17, and have the fax wait a selected number of minutes between each attempt by changing Option Setting 18 (see page 110).

The numbering of pages retransmitted will begin from "1" again.

If an error or power failure occurs during transmission of a cover sheet, retransmission will not take place.

To cancel retransmission, press JOB STATUS to show the job status in the display (make sure that RETRY MODE appears on the top line of the display and the number of the receiving party appears on the bottom line to

STOP

the right), and then press .
