Memory sending _____________________________
When you send a document, the fax uses memory sending to send your document. With memory sending, the
fax quickly scans the document into memory. Then, after it dials the receiving party, it sends the document
from memory. This means you do not have to wait for the fax to finish sending before you can retrieve your
original document.
You can send up to 20* A4-size pages at a time with memory sending (based on the Canon FAX Standard
Chart No.1, standard resolution).
If MEMORY FULL appears on the LCD when you load the document into the ADF, simply dial the receiving
number and press [Start/Copy]. In this case, the document is not scanned into memory but is sent directly to the
receiving party.
Follow the procedure below to send a document.
1 Open the document tray.
2 Load the document face down into the
Automatic Document Feeder (ADF).
See Loading documents, p. 3-3.
You can set the scanning resolution and contrast. (see p. 6-2)
3 Dial the receiving party’s fax number.
Use one of the dialling methods described earlier in this
chapter. (see p. 6-4)
4 Press [Start/Copy].
If the TIME OUT setting is set to ON the fax will start
scanning automatically. (see p. 9-4)
▼
The fax scans the document into memory and begins sending.
• If an error occurs during sending, the fax beeps intermittently for a few seconds. If this happens, try sending the
document again.
• The fax automatically redials if the receiving party does not answer or if the line is busy. (You can specify the
number of times it redials; see AUTO REDIAL, p. 9-4.)
• If an error message appears on the LCD, correct the error and then press [Stop]. See LCD messages, p. 10-18.
• You may not be able to use memory sending if the percentage of currently used memory shown on the LCD is
close to 100%. If the memory becomes full while the fax is scanning your document into memory, MEMORY
FULL is displayed on the LCD. If this should happen, you can wait until enough memory is available and the fax
begins to scan the document again automatically, or you can choose to print or delete one of the documents already
scanned into the memory (see pp. 6-16, 6-17). If you want to remove the document from the fax and try to send it
again later, open the operation panel and remove the document. In this case, see Jams in the Automatic Document
Feeder, p. 10-2.
* A maximum of 50 pages can be scanned into the fax memory. A maximum of 20 pages can be loaded into the ADF.
