ADMINISTERING THE FAX SOFTWARE
2. Press Enter.
The Edit Timeout Settings screen appears.
Specifying the fax job start timeout
If you set the Fax Pop-up menu for a fax and then do not send
the fax within 120 seconds, the fax software reverts to “off” (that
is, it lets the next print job print instead of delaying for the fax).
This acts as a precaution against accidentally sending a fax. The
following procedure changes the length of this timeout.
Follow these steps to change the fax start timeout:
1. On the Edit Timeout Settings screen, press the arrow keys to
highlight the Fax Job Must Start Within field.
2. Type the number of seconds (0 to 999) that you want for
timeout.
3. Press F10 to return to the Advanced Installation Options
screen.
4. Select Exit and press Enter.
Specifying the fax job end timeout
If the printer stops receiving fax input for 20 seconds in the
course of a job, it considers the job to be over. If you find that
faxes that you send are being terminated prematurely, you may
need to change this value to a higher number. This might
happen if you are faxing from a graphics or database application
that pauses to process more data while in the middle of printing.
N Note: If the printer is installed as a network printer, your
Fax End Timeout setting must be less than your network
timeout setting.
Follow these steps to change the fax end timeout:
1. Press the arrow keys to highlight the Fax Job Ends When Idle
For field on the Edit Timeout Settings screen.
2. Type the number of seconds (from 0 to 999) that you want
for the timeout.
3. Press F10 to return to the Advanced Installation Options
screen.
