INITIAL SETTINGS

SELECTING THE TRANSMISSION MODE

The machine has two modes for sending faxes: memory transmission and direct transmission. To change modes, press the [MEMORY] key. The MEMORY indicator lights up when memory transmission is selected, and goes off when direct transmission is selected.

Transmission takes place as follows in each mode:

Memory transmission (the MEMORY indicator is lit)

When a fax is sent from the RSPF and there are no previously stored fax jobs and no job in progress (the telephone line is not being used), dialing and scanning begin at the same time. Each page is transmitted after it is scanned. This transmission method is called Quick Online transmission.

If there are previously stored fax jobs or a job in progress, or the fax is being sent from the document glass, the fax is temporarily scanned into memory before transmission.

Note

When a fax is sent by transmission reservation (p.68), broadcast transmission (p.69), broadcasting using a Group

key (p.70), or timer transmission (p.77), the fax is scanned into memory before transmission.

 

 

 

Direct transmission (the MEMORY indicator is off)

The fax is sent directly after the destination is dialed and the connection established.

The machine memory is not used for direct transmission, and thus direct transmission is possible even when the memory is full.

Note

A fax job cannot be stored while a direct transmission is in progress.

Only one page can be sent from the document glass by direct transmission.

A subsequent function cannot be used while a direct transmission is in progress.
