AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION AT A SPECIFIED TIME
(TIMER TRANSMISSION)
This feature enables you to set up a transmission or polling operation to be performed automatically at a specified time
up to a week in advance. This allows you to take advantage of off-peak phone rates without having to be there when
the transmission is performed. A combined total of 50 timer transmission and memory transmission jobs can be stored.
NOTES
• After a timer transmission is performed, the information (image, destination, etc.) is automatically cleared from memory.
• To perform a timer transmission, the document must be scanned into memory. It is not possible to leave the document in the
auto document feeder or on the document glass and have it scanned at the specified time of transmission.
To set the date and time in the machine, refer to page 3-15 of "Operation manual (for printer operation and general information)".
• Only one polling timer operation can be set up at a time. If you wish to set up multiple timer polling operations, combine the
machines to be polled into a serial polling operation with a timer setting. (Refer to the next page.)

performed as soon as the current job is completed.
