Sending Documents
The following contains explanations on the standard method for transmitting documents.
Carefully read all the notes regarding acceptable documents, etc., to ensure correct
operation.
Switching to the Fax Operation mode
Check the message display to make sure that the touch panel
is in the initial mode for fax operation (the basic fax screen is
displayed). If the touch panel is not in the initial mode, press
the Reset key.
Check the transmission mode
Make sure that the fax machine is in the desired transmission
mode.
* There are two transmission modes available in this fax:
Memory Transmission and Direct Feed Transmission.
Memory Transmission is the default setting in this fax and, in
this case, “Memory TX” will be displayed.
* To switch from the Memory Transmission mode to the Direct
Feed Transmission mode, touch the “Memory TX” key until
“Dir. Feed Tx” is displayed.
<Transmission Modes>
● Memory Transmission mode (Transmitting from the Document
Processor)
The destination fax number is dialed automatically AFTER the
documents are set in the Document Processor, scanned and then
entered into memory. This is an extremely convenient mode
because your documents are returned to you, ready to use, without
making you wait until the actual transmission is complete. This is
the most appropriate method to use when transmitting multiple
page documents.
● Memory Transmission mode (Transmitting from the platen)
This mode is ideal for transmitting books and the like that cannot be
placed in the Document Processor. Documents are set one at a
time directly on the platen and, after all the documents are scanned
and entered into memory, the destination fax number is then dialed.
In this case, it is necessary – after each page is scanned – to select
whether or not you want to transmit more pages. (Refer to <If the
Documents Were Set on the Platen...> on page 1-18.)
● Direct Feed Transmission mode (Transmitting from the Document
Processor)
The destination fax number is dialed first, and – once the
connection with the other fax machine is established – the
documents that are set in the Document Processor are scanned
and then transmitted. If the transmission involves a multi-page
document, the second page is scanned after the data for the first
page is transmitted.
* If you want to stop the transmission in progress, press the
Stop/Clear key and remove the remaining documents from the
Document Processor.
● Direct Feed Transmission mode (Transmitting from the platen)
This mode is ideal for transmitting books and the like that cannot be
placed in the Document Processor. Documents are set one at a
time directly on the platen, the destination fax number is then dialed
first, and – once the connection with the other fax machine is
established – scanning of the document begins and the document
is transmitted.
This process is carried out for each page that you want to transmit
and it is necessary, after each page is scanned, to select whether
or not you want to transmit more pages. (Refer to <If the
Documents Were Set on the Platen...> on page 1-18.)
