RECEIVING FAXES
When another fax machine sends a fax to your machine, your machine will ring*, automatically receive the fax, and
begin printing (this is called automatic reception).
RECEIVING A FAX
1
The machine will ring* and reception will
automatically begin.
2
Reception ends.
When reception ends,
the machine makes a
"beep" sound.
The received fax is
delivered to the top tray.
If received data cannot be printed
If the machine is out of paper or toner, or if a paper jam occurs or the machine is
busy printing a copy or print job, received faxes will be stored in memory until
printing is possible. When printing is possible, the faxes will print automatically
(however, if the machine has run out of paper, touch the [OK] key in the touch
panel after adding paper). When a received fax is stored in memory, the "DATA"
light to the right of the [IMAGE SEND] key will blink.
You can also use the transfer function to have another fax machine print the
received data (See "USING THE TRANSFER FUNCTION" on page 3-18.).
NOTES
You can store a transmission job while fax reception is in progress. (See "Storing transmission jobs (memory
transmission)" on page 2-8.)
To receive faxes, sufficient paper must be loaded in the paper tray. Refer to pages 2-2 to 2-11 of "Operation manual (for
general information and copier operation)" to load appropriate paper. Incoming faxes will be automatically adjusted to the
orientation of the printing paper, so there is no need to load both horizontally ( ) and vertically ( ) oriented paper.
However, if you receive a fax that is smaller than A4 or B5 (8-1/2"x11") size, the paper size used to print the fax will depend
on how the original was oriented (vertically or horizontally) in the sending fax machine.
*Number of rings
The machine has been set to ring twice before beginning
automatic reception. You can use the key operator
program to change the number of rings to any number
from 0 to 15. (See "Number of calls in auto reception" on
page 8-9.)
If the number of rings is set to 0, the machine will receive
faxes without ringing.
NOTE
If the machine has multiple output trays, the key
operator program can be used to change the output
tray for fax reception. (See "Fax output tray setting"
on page 8-9.)
NOTE
If a double beep sounds during or after reception and an error message appears in the touch panel, clear the error
as explained in "WHEN AN ALARM SOUNDS AND A WARNING MESSAGE IS DISPLAYED" on page 7-3.
