Basic Procedure for Transmissions (Memory Transmission)

This section describes the basic procedure for transmitting documents using Memory Transmission.

You can specify the fax, IP-Fax, Internet Fax, e-mail, or folder destinations. Multiple types of destination can be specified simultaneously.

Important

  • It is recommended that you call the receivers and confirm with them when sending important documents.

  • If there is a power failure (the main power switch is turned off) or the machine is unplugged for about one hour, all the documents stored in memory are deleted. As soon as the main power switch is turned on, the Power Failure Report is printed to help you check the list of deleted files. See "When an Error Is Notified via a Report or E-Mail", Troubleshooting.

1Display the initial facsimile screen.

  • When using the standard operation panel

    Press the [Home] key on the bottom left of the control panel, and press the [Facsimile] icon on the [Home] screen.

8When sending the same original to several destinations (broadcasting), specify the next destination.

9If you send documents to Internet Fax or e-mail destinations or enable the Email TX Results function, specify a sender.

For details, see Sender Settings.

10Press the [Start] key.

Note

  • If memory is full (0% appears in "Memory" at the upper right of the screen), Memory Transmission is disabled. Use Immediate Transmission instead.

  • If the combined total number of programmed destinations exceeds the maximum value, only Immediate Transmission is possible.

  • To send documents to Internet Fax or e-mail destinations or use the Email TX Results function, the sender's e-mail address must be registered in the Address Book. If the sender or the sender's e-mail address is not registered in the Address Book, register them in advance. For details about registering them, see "Registering Addresses and Users", Connecting the Machine/ System Settings.

  • If the Auto Specify Sender Name function is enabled, the sender is automatically specified and you can omit the procedure for specifying a sender.

  • For the maximum values of the following items, see Maximum Values:

    • Number of documents you can store in memory for Memory Transmission

    • Number of pages you can store in memory (using A4 Standard <ITU-T Hash1 Chart>)

    • Number of destinations you can specify per file

    • Number of destinations you can specify for all files (including files in memory)
