USEFUL FUNCTIONS 1
Auto Fax Reception Power-up
This machine can be set to shut down automatically if nobody has used the it for a while. In these situations, even through the operation switch is off, the machine can still receive incoming messages as long as the Main Power switch is on.
Important Reception is not possible if both the operation switch and Main Power switch are turned off. Note By default, messages are printed as soon as they are received (Immediate Reception). To change this, see P.206 Changing the User Parameters

Personal Code Access


The machine can be set up so that nobody can use it without entering a personal code. This prevents unauthorized people from sending fax messages and can be used to track fax machine use by giving a personal code to each user.
Note You can store up to 20 personal codes (up to 50 with optional Fax Function Upgrade Unit installed).

Dual Access
The machine can scan other messages into memory even while sending a fax message from memory, receiving a message into memory , or automatically 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 Transmission or when in User Tools mode, the machine cannot scan an original.

Register personal codes and turn Personal Code Access on. The default setting is off. P.164 Registering Personal Codes, P.167 Personal Code Access Even if Restricted Access is enabled, the machine can receive and print a fax message.

USEFUL FUNCTIONS

Checking Settings (Check Modes)


Follow the steps below to view the destinations and functions selected so far.

Simultaneous Broadcast
The optional ISDN Unit or optional extra G3 Interface Unit is required. The Standard Broadcast feature sends faxes one at a time to multiple destinations in the order that you specified the destination numbers. The Simultaneous Broadcast feature, however, can send faxes two at a time to multiple destinations by transmitting simultaneously over different lines. This results in a shorter overall transmission time.
Note This feature can use a maximum of 2 lines simultaneously.

A Press the {Check Modes} key. }

B When

you have finished checking the settings, press the {Check } Modes} key to return to the previous display.

Transmission with Image Rotation


For most purposes, set A4/81/2"11" originals in the lengthwise direction (L). If you set an A4/81/2"11" original in the sideways direction (K), the image will be sent rotated by 90. Providing the receiver has A4/81/2"11" lengthwise paper (L), the message will be printed the same size as the original.
Limitation This feature is not available with Parallel Memory Transmission or Immediate Transmission.

When using the optional extra G3 Interface Unit, if you set the line selection to G3 Auto Select beforehand, the machine will use whichever G3 line is not busy thereby increasing efficiency.

When Image Rotation is used, all messages are sent by normal Memory Transmission.

Note Even if an original is correctly placed on the exposure glass or in the Document Feeder (ARDF), a margin of 3mm around each edge of the original may not be sent.

If the receiver uses paper narrower than the original, the image will be reduced to fit the paper width. P.97 Auto Reduction The machine detects paper sizes in the following ways. When you set an original in the Document Feeder (ARDF), an original wider than about 10.4" (263mm) is scanned as 11"17" size. An original narrower than about 9.1" (230mm) will be sent as 81/2"11" or 81/2"14" size. Originals up to 47 (1,200mm) in length can be scanned. Refer to the table below for the sizes the machine can detect when you set an original on the exposure glass. Because the machine scans in non-standard size documents as one of the standard sizes, parts of the image may be truncated depending on the length of the document.

HOW TO SET AN ORIGINAL

HOW TO SET AN ORIGINAL


In this manual an original can mean a single or multiple page document. You can set your originals either in the Document Feeder (ARDF) or on the exposure glass. Some types of originals are unsuitable for the Document Feeder (ARDF) so they must be set on the exposure glass. P.15 ACCEPTABLE TYPES OF ORIGINALS Which way you place your original depends on its size and whether you are using the Document Feeder (ARDF) or the exposure glass.
Limitation If you set 51/2"81/2"/A5 size documents on the exposure glass, they will not be detected. Set 51/2" 81/2"/A5 size documents in the ARDF. Note When sending a fax, the image output at the other end depends on the size and direction of paper used in the receiver's terminal. If the receiver does not use paper of the same size and direction as that of the original, the fax image may be output reduced, trimmed at the both edges, or divided into two or more sheets. When sending an important original, we recommend you to ask the receiver about the size and direction of the paper used in their terminal.

You can scan non-standard sized documents as standard sized documents with the Irregular Scan Area feature. When you turn on this feature, the area scanned will be in the specified range regardless of the actual document size. A blank margin will appear or the image will be truncated at the receiving end. Make sure that all ink, correcting fluid etc., has completely dried before setting your original. If it is still wet, the exposure glass will be marked and those marks will appear on the received image. If you set an 81/2"11"/A4 size original in the sideways direction, the machine rotates the image by 90 degrees before sending it. P.13 Transmission with Image Rotation
Reference For how to set 2-sided documents, see P.83 BOOK FAX.

When sending an original of an irregular (i.e. non-standard) size or part of a large original, you can specify the scan area precisely. P.85 CHOOSING THE AREA TO BE SCANNED YOURSELF (IRREGULAR SCAN AREA)

WHERE INCOMING MESSAGE ARE DELIVEREDOUTPUT TRAY 1


To change where incoming messages are delivered, adjust the Output Tray setting in the System Settings.

Tray Shift
The optional Finisher Unit is Required. When the optional Finisher Unit is selected for fax output, you can use the Tray Shift function to have the internal delivery exit move to the left or right whenever a fax or report is printed. This is useful for separating faxes stacked in the finisher output tray, e.g. if the previous incoming fax was output to the left, the next incoming fax will be output to the right and vice-versa.
Note You can turn this feature on or off with the User Parameters. When the machine is shipped, this feature is turned on by default. P.206 Changing the User Parameters

When the Selected Output Tray Becomes Full


If you install the optional Finisher Unit, the machine automatically detects when the selected Output Tray becomes full. When this happens, a warning will appear on the display and the message will be received using Substitute Reception.

When the Finisher Unit is Installed


You can use the optional Finisher Unit for large capacity paper delivery and sort delivery.
Limitation If you have selected the optional Finisher Unit as the Output Tray and a copy document longer than 13.3 (340mm) is left in the Finisher Unit, incoming messages are automatically delivered to the Internal Tray. Note If you receive messages larger than 12.9 (330mm) on a regular basis, we recommend that you choose an Output Tray setting other than Internal Tray.

2. Sending a Fax Message


OVERVIEW
Overview
The basic procedure to send a fax message is: A Make sure the Facsimile indicator is lit B Set your original C Dial the number D Press the {Start} key The rest of this section describes these steps and the various features that are available in more detail. There are two ways to send a fax message: Memory Transmission Immediate Transmission Check the indicators on the operation panel to check which mode is currently active and press the Transmission Mode key to toggle between them.

23

Sending a Fax Message

MEMORY TRANSMISSION
In Memory Transmission mode, after you press the {Start} key, the machine doesn't dial the destination until all pages of your fax message have scanned into memory (in contrast with Immediate Transmission, where the number is dialed first and pages are scanned and sent one by one). Memory Transmission is useful because: You can take your original away from the machine without having to wait too long While your message is being sent, other people can operate the machine You can send the same message to more than one place in a single operation (Broadcasting)
Important If there is a power failure (Main Power switch is off) or the plug is pulled out for more than 1 hour, all the files stored in memory are deleted. As soon as power is restored, the Power Failure Report is printed to help you identify deleted files. If you turn just the operation switch off, files are not deleted. P.122 WHEN POWER IS TURNED OFF OR FAILS Limitation If memory is full (0% appears on the display), Memory Transmission is disabled. Use Immediate Transmission instead. Note Maximum number of Memory Transmission files: 200 (up to 1,000 files with optional Fax Function Upgrade Unit installed)

Maximum number of destinations per Memory Transmission: 256 (up to 500 destinations with optional Fax Function Upgrade Unit installed) Combined total number of destinations that can be stored: 300 (up to 2,000 destinations with optional Fax Function Upgrade Unit installed) The theoretical maximum number of destinations you can enter with the number keys is 100, but this will depend on the amount of memory currently available (1,000 destinations with optional Fax Function Upgrade Unit installed). The number of pages that you can store in memory depends on the original images and the scan settings. You can store up to 160 standard pages (ITU-T #1 chart, Resolution: Standard, photo mode: OFF). As default, the machine will return to the default transmission mode (Memory Transmission) after every transmission. You can change this so that the current mode is maintained. P.206 Changing the User Parameters The maximum total number of documents that can be stored in memory is as follows: About 400 pages with only the optional Expansion Memory installed About 2,400 pages with both the optional Expansion Memory and Fax Function Upgrade Unit installed

MEMORY TRANSMISSION

- Sending a Fax Message Immediately


To send a fax message immediately, use Immediate Transmission. If you have just set up an original for broadcasting, Immediate Transmission will interrupt the current communication. If there are files queued in addition to the file being currently sent, your original is not be sent until the queued files have been sent.

- Broadcasting Sequence
If you dial several destinations for the same message (Broadcasting) the messages are sent in the order in which they were dialed. If the fax message could not be transmitted, the machine redials that destination after the last destination specified for Broadcasting. For example, if you specify four destinations A through D for broadcasting, and if the lines to destinations A and C are busy, the machine dials the destinations in the following order: A, B, C, D, A, and C. When the optional ISDN Unit or optional extra G3 Interface Unit is installed, you can broadcast simultaneously on multiple lines.

- Automatic Redial
If a fax message could not be transmitted because the line was busy or an error occurred during transmission, redialing is done 4 times at 5 minutes intervals (these figures vary according to which country you are in). If redialing fails after four redials, the machine cancels the transmission and prints the Transmission Result Report or Communication Failure Report. P.29 Transmission Result Report (Memory Transmission), P.29 Communication Failure Report, P.122 WHEN POWER IS TURNED OFF OR FAILS
Note Redialing is done only once when the optional extra G3 Interface Unit is installed.

- ECM (Error Correction Mode)


This feature automatically resends data that wasn't transmitted successfully using a system that complies with international standards. ECM requires that the destination machine has the same feature.
Note By default ECM is switched on. You can change this with the Key Operator Settings. P.164 KEY OPERATOR SETTINGS

Note By default, successfully scanned pages are sent. If you wish to change this setting, please contact your service representative.

Memory Storage Report


This report is printed after an original is stored in memory. It helps you review the contents and the destinations of stored originals. Even if the machine is set up not to print this report, it is still printed if an original could not be stored.
Note You can turn this report on and off. By default it is not printed. P.206 Changing the User Parameters

- 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 original. Several fax messages can be sent with a single call, thus eliminating the need for several separate calls. This helps save communication costs and reduce transmission time. Fax messages for which the transmission time has been set in advance are sent by batch transmission when that time is reached.
Note By default Batch Transmission is switched on. You can switch it on or off with the User Parameters. P.206 Changing the User Parameters

Sending a Fax Message

IMMEDIATE TRANSMISSION
With Immediate Transmission, when you press the {Start} key, the fax number is dialed straight away (i.e. immediately). The message is scanned and transmitted page by page without being stored in memory. This contrasts with Memory Transmission which scans in all pages into memory before dialing the destination. Immediate Transmission is useful if you want immediate confirmation that the message is being sent to the correct destination (just check the other terminal's RTI or CSI on the operation panel during transmission).
Note You cannot send the same message to multiple destinations (Broadcasting). Use Memory Transmission for this purpose.

A Check that the Immediate Transmission indicator is lit.

If it is not lit, press the {Transmission Mode} key.

SCAN SETTINGS

SCAN SETTINGS
You may wish to send many different types of fax message. Some of these may be difficult to reproduce at the other end. However, your machine has three settings that you can adjust to help you transmit your document with the best possible image quality.

y Super Fine (optional Expansion Memory required: 1615.4lines/mm, 400400dpi) Select for originals with very fine details or when you require the best possible image clarity. This resolution is eight times as fine as Standard.
Limitation If the other party's machine does not support the resolution at which you are sending, this machine automatically switches to a resolution which is supported.

y Resolution: Standard, Detail, Super Fine (option) y Image density: Auto Image Density, Manual Image Density (7 levels) y Original type: Text, TextPhoto, Photo

Resolution
Images and text are scanned into the machine by converting them to sequences of dots. The frequency of dots determines the quality of the image and how long it takes to transmit. Therefore, images scanned at high resolution (Super Fine) have high quality but transmission takes longer. Conversely, low resolution (Standard) scanning results in less quality but your original is sent more quickly. Choose the setting that matches your needs based upon this trade off between speed and image clarity.

Sending with Super Fine resolution requires that your machine has the optional Expansion Memory and the other party's machine has the capability to receive fax messages at Super Fine resolution. Note that even if the option is installed on your machine, transmission and reception may take place using Detail resolution if the other party's machine does not support this feature.
Note When the machine is turned on or modes are cleared, the resolution is set to Standard by default. You can change this with the User Parameters. P.206 Changing the User Parameters By default, the resolution returns to the home setting after every transmission. You change this with the User Parameters. P.206 Changing the User Parameters

y Standard (83.85lines/mm, 200100dpi) Select for originals containing normal sized characters. y Detail (87.7lines/mm, 200200dpi) Select for originals containing small characters or when you require greater clarity. This resolution is twice as fine as Standard.

Original Type
If your original contains photographs, illustrations or diagrams with complex shading patterns or grays, select the appropriate Original Type to optimize image clarity.

y Text Text is selected when the Photo and TextPhoto indicators are not lit. Select Text to send an original containing a high-contrast blackand-white image. Use this setting even if your original contains text and photographs if you only want to send clearer text. y TextPhoto TextPhoto is selected when the TextPhoto indicator is lit. Select TextPhoto to send an original containing both a high-contrast blackand-white image, such as text, and a halftone image such as a photograph. y Photo Photo is selected when the Photo indicator is lit. Select Photo to send an original containing a halftone image such as a photograph or a color original.
Limitation If you select TextPhoto or Photo, the Resolution is automatically set to Detail. Even if you select Standard again, the image density will not return to Standard.

If you send a fax message with TextPhoto or Photo and the background of the received image is dirty, reduce the density setting and re-send the fax. When the machine is turned on or modes are cleared, the Original Type is set to Text. You can change this with the Initial Setup TX settings.

Note When this machine is requested to transfer a call (i.e. becomes a Transfer Station), 2 fax numbers are automatically stored. Therefore, the number of destinations that can be dialed from the number keys decreases by two whenever this machine is requested to transfer a call.

Pause
Press the {Pause/Redial} key when dialing or storing a number to insert about a two-second pause.

When a total of 100 fax numbers is stored, only Immediate Transmission is allowed. If a memory file is awaiting transmission and the Memory is full and
you cannot enter with number keys message is displayed when

dialing with the number keys, you cannot dial any more numbers. That is because the fax numbers have been dialed with the number keys for some of the files awaiting transmission. When these files have been sent and their fax numbers are deleted from memory, additional fax numbers can be dialed. The display shows the percentage of free memory space for storing originals. Since fax numbers are stored in separate memory, dialing fax numbers with the number keys does not change the percentage on the display.

Limitation You cannot insert a pause before the first digit of a fax number. Note A pause is shown as a - on the display.

You can insert a pause in numbers stored in Quick Dials and Speed Dials.

3. Receiving a Fax Message


IMMEDIATE RECEPTION
Each page of a received fax message is printed as soon as it is received. This method is used for standard fax messages.

- Reception Resolution
This machine supports Standard, Detail, Fine (optional Expansion Memory required) and Super Fine (optional Expansion Memory required) resolutions for reception. If you do not have the optional Expansion Memory, faxes sent at Fine or Super Fine resolution will be printed on your machine at Detail resolution. This may result in a slightly different from the sender's intention. Reception will not take place if there is not enough free memory left. If free memory reaches 0% during Immediate Reception, any further reception becomes impossible and the current communication is terminated.

Important All the messages stored in memory are deleted if the power is switched off for about more than one hour.

The machine may not be able to receive large numbers of messages or messages with a high data content. In such cases, we recommend you switch the above features off or add a memory card.

56

Substitute Reception

Substitute Reception
If any of the conditions listed below are met, the machine automatically switches to Memory Reception mode and stores messages in memory instead of printing them. This reception mode, in which a received fax message is stored in memory unprinted, is called Substitute Reception. Messages received using Substitute Reception are automatically printed when the condition which caused the machine to use Substitute Reception is rectified. Substitute Reception takes place when: Paper runs out Toner runs out Paper is jammed A cover is open A fax is received during a copy or print run
Limitation Reception may not take place if there is not enough free memory left. Note The Receive File indicator lights to let you know when message(s) have been received using Substitute Reception.

Screening Out Messages from Anonymous Senders


To help you screen out unwanted messages that may fill up machine memory, the machine can be programmed to only use Substitute Reception under the following conditions. Four settings are available: When RTI or CSI is received Free disable Polling ID
Note The default setting is When RTI or CSI is received, i.e. only store messages when the RTI/CSI is present. You can change this with the User Parameters. P.206 Changing the User Parameters Even if the sender does not have an RTI or CSI, the machine will still receive messages using Substitute Reception if: Paper becomes jammed while the power switch is on For some reason printing is not possible e.g., copy job is in progress

If free memory reaches 0% during Substitute Reception, any further reception becomes impossible and the current communication is terminated.

57

Receiving a Fax Message

- When RTI or CSI is Received


The machine switches to Substitute Reception only when the sender has programmed their RTI or CSI. If the power is switched off for more than an hour, all the messages received into memory are deleted. In such a case, the Power Failure Report or the TCR can be used to identify which messages are lost so you can ask the senders to transmit them again.
Important If a sender has not programmed their RTI or CSI, the machine may reject an important fax message. We recommend that you ask important senders to register an RTI or CSI in advance.

- Free
The machine switches to Substitute Reception regardless of whether or not the sender has programmed their RTI or CSI.

- Polling ID
The machine switches to Substitute Reception only when you have received a message with the same Polling ID of your machine.

Note You can turn CIL and TID on or off with the User Parameters. P.206 Changing the User Parameters

When There is No Paper of the Correct Size


If there is no paper in your machine that matches the size of a received message, the machine will choose a paper size based upon the paper you have available. For example, if your machine has LG (81/2"14")L and DLT (11"17")L installed and you receive a LT (81/2"11")L size message, check the LT (81/2"11") column of the table below. The paper size at the top has the highest priority. In this case, since LG (81/2"14")L is higher priority than DLT (11"17")L, the message is printed on LG (81/2"14")L. If only B5L is loaded and you receive an DLT (11"17")L message, the received message is stored in memory and will not be printed.
