Substitute Reception
If any of the conditions listed below
are met, the machine automatically
switches to Memory Reception mode
and stores messages in memory in-
stead of printing them. This reception
mode, in which a received fax mes-
sage is stored in memory unprinted,
is called Substitute Reception. Mes-
sages received using Substitute Re-
ception are automatically printed
when the condition which caused the
machine to use Substitute Reception
is rectified. Substitute Reception takes
place when:
•Paper runs out
• Toner runs out
• Paper is jammed
• A cover is open
• A fax is received during a copy or
print run
Limitation
❒ Reception may not take place if
there is not enough free memory
left.
Note
❒ The Receive File indicator lights to
let you know when message(s)
have been received using Substi-
tute Reception.
❒ If free memory reaches 0% during
Substitute Reception, any further
reception becomes impossible and
the current communication is ter-
minated.
Screening Out Messages from
Anonymous Senders
To help you screen out unwanted
messages that may fill up machine
memory, the machine can be pro-
grammed to only use Substitute Re-
ception under the following
conditions.
Four settings are available:
• Enabled unconditionally (Free)
• Enabled for Own Name/Own Fax
Number is received
• Enabled for Polling ID match
• Disabled (Reception off)
Note
❒ The default setting is "When Own
Name or Own Fax Number is re-
ceived", only storing messages
when the Own Name/Own Fax
Number is present. You can
change this with the User Parame-
ters. See P.72 “User Parameters”
(Switch05, Bit2,1).
❒ Even if the sender does not have an
Own Name or Own Fax Number,
the machine will still receive mes-
sages using Substitute Reception
if:
• Paper becomes jammed while
the power switch is on
• For some reason printing is not
possible for example when copy
job is in progress
❒ The machine must be of the same
manufacturer and matches the
Polling ID.
