If There Is No Paper of the Correct Size

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.

(mainly Europe and Asia)

For example, if your machine does not have A4 loaded and you receive an A4 size document, the document is printed on A3. If your machine does not have A3 loaded and you receive an A3 size document, the document is printed on two sheets of A4.

(mainly North America)

For example, if your machine does not have 8¹/₂ × 11 loaded and you receive an 8¹/₂ × 11 size document, the document is printed on 11 × 17. If your machine does not have 11 × 17 loaded and you receive an 11 × 17 size document, the document is printed on two sheets of 8¹/₂ × 11.

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. However, you can use this tray if you select the bypass tray as the main paper tray using Reception with Specified Senders.
Widths that this machine can receive are A4, B4 JIS, 8¹/₂ × 11, and A3. 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.
