Sending a Fax by Automatic Dialing

Automatic redialing

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

To cancel automatic redialing, cancel the job as explained in Checking and canceling stored transmission jobs on page 51.

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 191).

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 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 194).

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, cancel the job as explained in Checking and canceling stored transmission jobs on page 51.
