Automatic Redial
If a document cannot be transmitted
because the line is busy or due to a
transmission error, redialing is done
twice at 5-minute intervals for Imme-
diate Transmission, and four times at
5-minute intervals for Memory Trans-
mission. (The redialing interval and
number of retries may vary according
to country.)
If redialing fails, the machine cancels
the transmission and prints the Com-
munication Result Report or Commu-
nication Failure Report.
Batch Transmission
If you send a fax message by Memory
Transmission and there is another fax
message waiting in memory to be
sent to the same destination, that
message is sent along with your doc-
ument. Several fax messages can be
sent with a single call, thus eliminat-
ing the need for several separate calls.
This helps you reduce communica-
tion costs and transmission time.
Fax messages for which the transmis-
sion time has been set in advance are
sent by Batch Transmission when that
time is reached.
Note
❒ You can switch the Batch Trans-
mission function on or off with
User Parameters. See p.178 “User
Parameters” (switch 06 bit 4).
❒ If you store the Batch Transmission
function in a User Function key,
you can turn it on or off by just
pressing that key. The User Func-
tion key indicator lights when
Batch Transmission is turned on.
Dual Access
The machine can scan other messages
into memory even while sending a
fax message from memory, receiving
a message into memory, or automati-
cally printing a report.
Since the machine starts sending the
second message immediately after
the current transmission terminates,
the line will be used efficiently.
Note that during Immediate Trans-
mission, when copying, or when the
User Tools menu is open, the machine
cannot scan in documents.
ECM (Error Correction Mode)
This feature automatically resends
data that wasn't transmitted success-
fully using a system that complies
with international standards.
ECM requires that the destination
machine has the same feature.
Parallel Memory Transmission
With this feature the machine can call
destinations while scanning docu-
ments. Compared with normal Mem-
ory Transmission (where the machine
calls once all the documents have
been stored), it is quick to verify
whether a connection has been made
or not.
Additionally, as scanning finishes
quicker than in Immediate Transmis-
sion, it is useful if you wish to take the
document back to your desk immedi-
ately. However, if the connection can-
not be made (for example if the line is
busy), normal Memory Transmission
takes place.
