Chapter 4 Fax Reception
Convenient Reception Features
This machine supports certain convenient-to-use reception features. Program these features as
required.
Selective Reception
Your machine has a special feature, Selective Reception, which can prevent receiving of unnecessary
documents, (i.e. junk fax, direct mail, etc.).
Before receiving the document, the last 4 digits of the ID Number received from the sending machine
will be compared with the last 4 digits of the telephone number programmed in each Address Book
station. When a match is found, your machine will start receiving the document. If a match is not found,
your machine will cancel the reception.
zThe standard setting of “46 Select Receive” is set to “Invalid” in Function Parameters (Fax/Email Settings>
Fax Parameters). For instructions on how to enable the selective reception feature, refer to Fax/Email
Settings in the Operating Instructions (For Function Parameters) on the provided CD-ROM.
zThis feature requires the registration of all possible sending stations in your address book. Refer to Adding a
Fax Number into the Address Book (see page 165).
zSelective reception will not work if the fax number is not set in the sender's numeric ID, or the sender's numeric
ID is not programmed at all. You need to advice to include the fax number (fax telephone number) in the
Numeric ID to the sender who you want to receive faxes from.
zThe remote machines to which you send faxes may also have the selective reception feature preprogrammed.
