This setting gives you the fastest transmission. • FINE Use FINE for improved reproduction, especially with originals containing small letters or fine drawings.
COVER SHEET You can have your fax generate a cover sheet and send it as the last page of the transmission. The cover sheet includes the date and time, the sender's name and number, and the receiver's name and number if an automatic dialing number is used. The total number of pages sent is indicated on the bottom. One of five messages can also be added to the cover sheet.
HOW TO USE THE FAX FUNCTION MESSAGE FUNCTION One of the following messages can be selected: "CONFIDENTIAL", "PLS. DISTRIBUTE", "URGENT", "PLS. CALL BACK", "IMPORTANT". If a message is selected when the cover sheet function is not used, the message will be added to the top of the first page of the fax. Note To add a message to a cover sheet, follow these steps: 1 Press the [COVER SHEET] key. 2 Press the [COVER SHEET] key until "2:TX MESSAGE SET" appears, and then press the [OK] key.
TWO-SIDED ORIGINAL TRANSMISSION FUNCTION The RSPF can be used to automatically fax a two-sided original. If desired, the back of the original can be rotated 180° before transmission. Note • The original must be placed in the RSPF when using the two-sided original transmission function. The document glass cannot be used. • The two-sided original transmission function cannot be selected when direct transmission mode is selected.
DIALING AND TRANSMITTING Once you have set the original (either in the RSPF or on the document glass), and have selected the desired transmission settings, you are ready to dial the number of the receiving fax machine and transmit the original. You can choose from one of the several ways of dialing that best suit your needs.
HOW TO USE THE FAX FUNCTION CHAIN DIALING The Chain Dialing function allows you to combine a Rapid Key or Speed Dial number (See "PBX SETTING" (p.39)) set for Chain Dialing with another Rapid Key, Speed Dial number, or number dialed with the numeric keys to dial one fax number up to 50 digits long. The following are some examples of how this can be done: • Press Rapid Keys set for Chain Dialing in the correct order for the fax number that you wish to dial.
HOW TO USE THE FAX FUNCTION USING THE SEARCH KEY If you do not remember the Rapid key or Speed Dial number in which you have stored a particular fax number, you can search for the number by following the steps below: 1 Press the [SPEED/SEARCH] key twice. 4 Press the [ ] key ( ) or [ ] key ( ) to scroll through the names. Stop when the desired name appears in the display. 1,2,3, 1,2,3, SP.

If the memory becomes full while the first page is being scanned, scanning will stop and the transmission will be canceled. If the memory becomes full while scanning a page after the first page, scanning will stop.
RECEIVING FAXES You can set the machine to one of three modes of reception, AUTO, MAN. , or A.M. (Answering Machine). To select the reception mode, press the [RECEPTION MODE] key until the desired reception mode appears in the display. 05 NOV WED 8:20 STAND-BY AUTO 100% 1,2,3, 1,2,3, SP. FUNC USING AUTO MODE Select AUTO mode when you only want to receive faxes on your telephone line. The machine will automatically answer all calls and receive incoming faxes. USING MAN. MODE MAN.
OPTIONAL RECEPTION SETTINGS The machine has various optional settings for the reception of faxes. TWO-SIDED RECEPTION This function is used to print a received fax consisting of two or more pages of the same size on both sides of the paper. Even if the pages are in different orientations, the pages are rotated appropriately to enable printing on both sides of the paper. Note The two-sided reception function cannot be used when printing a transaction report or activity report.
HOW TO USE THE FAX FUNCTION RECEIVE REDUCE You may on occasion receive faxes that are larger than the paper loaded in the machine. To ensure that you do not lose any part of the original, you should use the Receive Reduce function, which scales the fax to the printing paper size. In some cases the size or resolution of a received fax may not permit reduction. When this happens the fax will be printed at full size and divided onto multiple sheets of paper.
WHEN USING MANUAL SENDING AND RECEIVING You need to use the [SPEAKER] key or an extension telephone to perform manual sending and receiving. For information about connecting an extension telephone See "CONNECTING OTHER DEVICES" (p.12). 1 When the extension telephone rings, pick up the handset and converse. If the [SPEAKER] key is used to answer a call you cannot converse. Note 2 You cannot use the [SPEAKER] key for fax transmission/reception while copying is in progress.
5 Chapter 5 SPECIAL FUNCTIONS MEMORY Your machine has a memory area that can be used to store both incoming faxes and outgoing originals. ● Approximately 120 pages of average content can be held in memory for transmission and reception. Less can be held if any of the pages were scanned using fine or superfine resolution.
DATA TRANSFER If there is a problem with the machine, you can use the Data Transfer function to have received faxes read into memory and then sent to a different fax machine for printing. This function is used when you cannot print received faxes, for example when the machine runs out of toner, or a misfeed occurs. To use this function, the fax number of the transfer destination machine must be programmed.
SPECIAL FUNCTIONS Follow these steps to use the fax transfer function: 1 Press the [MENU] key. 1,2,3, 1,2,3, SP.

Selection "1:DATA TRANSFER" 4 5 Press the [ ] key ( ) or [ ] key ( ) until "1:YES" appears, and then press the [OK] key.
TRANSMISSION RESERVATION When your fax is busy receiving an original or transmitting an original from memory, you can "reserve" a transmission by setting the original (either in the RSPF or on the document glass), reading it into memory, and entering the fax number. Once the current operation is completed, your fax will automatically dial the number and transmit the original saving you from having to wait.
BROADCASTING This function allows you to send the same original to as many as 100 different locations with just one operation. Once the original is loaded, it is scanned and stored in memory. The fax numbers you have entered are then automatically dialed in succession, and the original is transmitted to each location.
SPECIAL FUNCTIONS Broadcasting using a Group key If the fax machines to which you want to broadcast have all been programmed into one Group key, you can perform the broadcasting operation using the following simplified procedure. Refer to "STORING NUMBERS UNDER GROUP KEYS" (p.43). 1 Place the original face up and push it gently into the document feeder tray. Original face up 2 70 Adjust the resolution and/or contrast settings if desired. Press the appropriate Group key. Transmission will begin.
POLLING Polling allows you to request another fax machine to send an original to your fax machine. In other words, the receiving fax machine, not the transmitting fax machine, activates the transmission. You can use your fax to both poll and be polled by others.
