ADMINISTERING THE FAX SOFTWARE
Fax machine identification
Across the top edge of each page of every fax is a line of small
print that includes a time stamp and the identification of the
sending machine. Although it is not required to use a fax
machine identification, it is a good idea to do so in case the
recipient needs to identify the the fax origin. You can type a
name and telephone number in the machine identification field,
up to 20 characters.
Transmission Status Reports
The default value for Transmission Status Reports is set to Always.
This setting forces the fax software to print a report from the
default input tray and paper size each time a fax transmission is
attempted. If Transmission Status Reports are not required,
change this setting to Never.
Transmission Status Reports are important because they tell you
whether your fax jobs were sent successfully.
N Note: Change Transmission Status Reports to Never only if
you have a compelling reason (such as security) to do so.
Number of retries (0-99)
By default, the printer does not attempt to retry a fax
transmission if it cannot complete the transmission on the first try
as a result of a busy signal or other problem. You can change
this setting to a maximum of 99 times to complete a fax
transmission.
N Notes:
• The fax utility cannot set the number of rings before
answering higher than 99. However, the printer control
panel allows you to set this figure from 0 through 100. If
you need to set the number of retries to 100, then
follow the procedure in the “Receive Setup” section in
the “Fax Setup Menu” chapter.
• Each time the printer attempts to complete a fax
transmission, the printer is busy and you are unable to
print.
Retry interval (1-60)
This specifies how long the printer waits between retry attempts
if retries have been enabled. Specify the number of minutes
between retries from 1 to 60.
Fax speaker on (Y/N)
This determines whether the printer speaker is turned on or off.
The speaker emits audible tones when you dial, and allows you
to hear whether a fax connection is made. You may turn the
speaker off by selecting N in this field if your prefer not to hear
the audible tones.
