AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION AT A SPECIFIED TIME
This feature enables you to set up a transmission or polling operation to be performed automatically at a specified time
up to a week in advance. This is convenient when you will be out of the office or for transmission at off-peak nighttime
rates. A combined total of 50 timer transmission and memory transmission jobs can be stored.
After a timer transmission is performed, the information (image, destination, etc.) is automatically cleared from memory.
To perform a timer transmission, the original must be scanned into memory. It is not possible to leave the original in the
document feeder or on the document glass and have it scanned at the specified time of transmission.
The date and time is set in the machine using the system settings.
(See Date & Time Set (page 7-10)
.)
Only one polling timer operation can be set up at a time. If you wish to set up multiple timer polling operations, combine the
machines to be polled into one serial polling operation with a timer setting (see Serial polling mode (page 4-33)
).

To cancel a timer operation after the above procedure has been completed, follow the procedure in CANCELLING A

A timer job number is automatically assigned to the operation. This number can be used to cancel a stored job. (See
the note Cancelling a stored transmission job screen (screen of step 3) on page 4-23
.)
Other operations can be performed after a timer operation is set up. If another operation is in progress when the
specified time arrives, the timer transmission will begin when the job in progress is completed.
