Sending a delayed fax
You can schedule a fax to be sent automatically at a future time to one or more people.
When you complete this procedure, the device scans the document into memory and returns
to the Ready state so that you can perform other tasks.
Note
If the device cannot transmit the fax at the scheduled time, that information is indicated on
the fax call report (if that option is turned on) or recorded in the fax activity log. The
transmittal might be halted because the fax-sending call is not answered, or because a busy
signal stops the redial attempts. (See
Setting print times for the fax call report and Printing
the fax activity log for more information.)
If you have set a fax to be sent at a future time but you need to add something to it, you can
send the additional information as another job. All faxes that are scheduled to go to the
same fax number at the same time are delivered as individual faxes.
