Potential problems with call-waiting and voice mail
Telephone call-waiting signals can stop fax transmission and reception. And any
service — such as voice mail — which may intercept your calls can keep your fax
machine from receiving fax calls.
If you use only one line for both phone and fax, consult your telephone company to
see how you can temporarily disable call-waiting or voice mail while using the fax
machine.
Adjusting the machine for larger documents
You can adjust the document hopper and the document tray to allow for large
documents. Just flip the top up or down as needed.
Using memory transmission
Your fax machine has a great memory! Take advantage of it, and you could:
Save Time. By using your fax machine’s memory, you won’t have to wait for your
machine while it completes the transmission. Simply scan your document into your
fax machine’s memory, and you can walk away with your original in hand.
Save Money. If you’re transmitting to another memory-equipped fax machine, your
machine will send the document directly into the other machine’s memory and hang
up. (The receiving machine then prints out your message from its memory after the
call has ended.) This cuts your actual on-line time to a minimum.
Save Even More Money. Set up a delayed command (see pages 2.17– 2.19) to send
your document after hours, and you can save more money, because the line charges
will be cheaper.
You can set your fax to transmit from memory as the default.
Note: Whether you decide to send your documents from memory or manually, you
can override that choice one transmission at a time by pressing
MEMORY TRANSMIT
before you send your document. After completing the
communication, your fax will return to the default setting.
Note: Some documents use up memory more quickly than others. They include
documents with many pages and those with many dark areas. When the
machine’s memory is full, it can transmit only through the document feeder.
To make memory transmission the default:
1
Press /

Press or /

until the mode you want appears.
In this example, we’ve chosen Off.
