Basic operation
This command number appears on the first line of the
LCD
for a few seconds:
You’ll need to know this command number if you later wish to cancel the
transmission or to print a stored document (see pages 2.6–2.7).

Now, everything is up to the machines — yours and the one you’re dialing.
• If the fax has been set for Quick Memory transmit, your machine scans the
first page of your document into memory, then dials the other fax. When it
makes contact, your machine transmits the stored document from memory
while at the same time scanning the remaining pages of your document
into memory. (In default setting, the Quick Memory transmission is On.If
you want to turn off this feature, see page 4.2.)
• If the fax has been set for the normal memory transmit, your fax scans the
entire document into memory, then dials the other fax. When it makes con-
tact, your machine transmits the entire stored document from memory.
• If the fax is set for Real time transmit (non-memory transmission), your
machine simply dials the other fax. When it makes contact, your machine
feeds the document through, scanning and transmitting it as it goes.
Note: The more “stuff” (called black coverage) your machine “sees” on a
page, the slower the page feeds through as the fax scans it. And even
if the page is relatively clean, sending it in grayscale mode or at cer-
tain resolutions makes your machine “see” more “stuff.”
The same is true if you set the contrast to Dark.
Important: If you want to cancel a transmission while scanning the docu-
ment, press the
STOP
key.
If you want to cancel a transmission in progress, use the Review
Commands feature. See “Reviewing or canceling commands,”
page 2.6.

At the end of the operation, your fax machine beeps and displays:
Important: Whenever you transmit a document, what actually appears on
the top line of the display depends on information stored in the
remote fax. The line may even be blank.
Note: If the call fails, see “Redialing,” page 2.5.
