If there is no paper in the machine that matches the size of a received document, the machine will choose a paper size based on the paper available.
If you have not set the same size paper in the paper tray, incoming fax documents are printed on the nearest size available.
For example, if your machine does not have 51/2 × 81/2 loaded and you receive a 51/2 × 81/2 size document, the document is printed on 81/2 × 11. If your machine does not have 81/2 × 11 loaded and you receive an 81/2 × 11 size document, the document is printed on two sheets of 51/2 × 81/2.
The document is split over two sheets of paper depending on the paper size. See “Page Separation and Length Reduction”.
Paper placed in the bypass tray is not usually selected for printing a received document.
Widths that this machine can receive are A4 and 81/2 × 11. Any documents narrower than A4 or 81/2 × 11 are received at A4 or 81/2 × 11 width. The length of documents depends on the document.
The paper size used to print a received document may be different from the size of the sent original.
