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 stop automatic redialing, press the CHANGEOVER key to show the telephone line 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), and then press the STOP key.
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 Chapter 6, Optional Settings.
♦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 or power failure 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 Chapter 6, Optional Settings.
♦To stop retransmission, press the CHANGEOVER key to show the telephone line status in the display (make sure that RETRY MODE appears on the top line of the display and the number of the receiv- ing party appears on the bottom line to the right), and then press the STOP key.
