USING THE AUTOMATIC DOCUMENT FEEDER FOR TRANSMISSION

Storing scanned originals in machine's memory before transmitting them is called "Memory TX".
This section explains how to scan the original through the automatic document feeder and send the data by the memory transmission function.

  • To fax a thick original or other original that cannot be placed in the automatic document feeder, open the automatic document feeder and place the original on the document glass.
  • If there is a fax job in progress when the transmission operation is performed, the fax is transmitted when the job in progress is finished.
  • If the memory becomes full while the originals are being scanned, a message will appear and scanning will stop. When Quick On Line Sending is enabled for transmission, the scanned originals are sent.
  • To disable the Quick On Line Sending setting:
  • In "Settings (administrator)", select [System Settings] → [Image Send Settings] → [Fax Settings] → [Send Settings] → [Quick On Line Sending].
    If you disable this setting, memory transmission will not begin until all pages have been scanned.
  • To set the scan complete sound:
  • In "Settings (administrator)", select [System Settings] → [Common Settings] → [Sound Settings] → [Beep Sound Settings (Common)] → [Scan Complete Sound (Image Send)].
  • Always stamp scanned originals:
  • In "Settings (administrator)", select [System Settings] → [Image Send Settings] → [Common Settings] → [Condition Settings] → [Default Verification Stamp]. When this is enabled, originals are always stamped without the need to select "Verification Stamp”.
  • To disable the Disabling of Document Feeder setting:
  • In "Settings (administrator)", select [System Settings] → [Common Settings] → [Device Control] → [Condition Settings] or [Enable/Disable Settings] → [Disabling of Document Feeder].

USING THE DOCUMENT GLASS TO SEND A FAX IN DIRECT TX MODE

Sending a scanned original without saving it in the machine's memory is called "Direct TX".

  • When the speaker is used, transmission takes place without scanning the original into memory.
  • A destination that includes an F-code (sub-address and passcode) cannot be used.

SENDING THE SAME FAX TO MULTIPLE DESTINATIONS (BROADCAST TRANSMISSION)

You can send a fax to multiple destinations in a single operation when, for example, sending a report to branch offices in different regions. This function is called "Broadcasting".
One operation allows you to send data to up to 500 destinations, including the reserved send jobs. (For example, if broadcast transmission jobs with 450 destinations are already reserved, data can be broadcasted to up to 50 destinations.)

It is convenient to store destinations you frequently use for broadcast transmission as contacts or groups. A maximum of 500 destinations can be stored in one contact.
For broadcast transmission, the contact or group key can be simply tapped to retrieve multiple fax numbers.
You can also send faxes with the one-touch key by setting the [Set as Default used] checkbox to when addresses are registered. If you wish to temporarily remove a destination from the stored addresses, open the detail confirmation screen and remove the destination in the screen.

STORING ADDRESSES THROUGH DIRECT ENTRY
STORING ADDRESSES THROUGH GLOBAL ADDRESS SEARCH
STORING ADDRESSES FROM FAX OR IMAGE SEND LOGS
STORING GROUPS

When the checkbox of "Settings (administrator)" -[System Settings] → [Image Send Settings] → [Common Settings] → [Default Settings] →[Address Book Default Selection] → [Apply Addresses of Sending Modes Only] is selected (factory default setting), the fax is only sent to those destinations that are for fax among the destinations that are set to [Set as Default used]. If the checkmark is removed , the fax can be sent to destinations of other modes.

When a one-touch key is used to dial, the number of fax numbers that are dialled is the number of destinations that are stored in the one-touch key. When a one-touch key that has 10 destinations is used, 10 fax numbers are dialled.

  • Broadcast transmission is available only for memory transmission.
  • If this function is combined with "Timer Transmission", broadcast transmission can be performed at any time, such as at night.
  • A broadcast transmission can also be used in combination with other convenient functions.
  • Even if a colour original is being used, it will be sent to fax and Internet fax destinations in black and white. A long original is also sent in black and white.
  • If you wish to send the same image as fax to all destinations, tap [Send Same Image as Fax Address] on the action panel.
  • When Scan to E-mail and Internet Fax destinations are included, the send width for Scan to E-mail and Internet Fax will be the same as the send width for fax.
  • Direct SMTP addresses cannot be included in a transmission.

Place the original.

Place the original in the document feeder tray of the automatic document feeder, or on the document glass.

RESENDING TO UNSUCCESSFUL BROADCAST TRANSMISSION DESTINATIONS

The results of a completed broadcast transmission can be checked in the job status screen. If transmission to any of the destinations failed, resend the fax to those destinations.

Tap the job status display, and tapping the [Fax] tab.

Tap the [Complete] key.

After tapping the key of the completed broadcast transmission, tap [Check Details of Selected Job] on the action panel.

After tapping the [Failed] tab, tap [Resend to All Addresses Which Failed in Sending] on the action panel to resend the image.

The steps to follow after [Resend to All Addresses Which Failed in Sending] is tapped differ depending on whether or not the document filing function is used.
  • Using document filing:
  • You will return to the document filing resend screen with the unsuccessful destinations entered. Perform the document filing resend procedure. (There is no need to re-scan the original.)
    If the job was stored in a confidential folder or was stored as confidential file, a password entry screen will appear after you tap the [Retry] key. Enter the password.
  • Not using document filing:
  • You will return to the base screen with the unsuccessful destinations entered. Place the original and perform the steps of the broadcast transmission.

SENDING A FAX DIRECTLY FROM A COMPUTER (PC-Fax)

A file on a computer can be sent via the machine as a fax (PC-Fax function). Faxes are sent using the PC-Fax function in the same way that documents are printed. Select the PC-Fax driver as the printer driver for your computer and then select the Print command in the application. Image data for transmission will be created and sent as a fax.
By using the "Log Viewer" application, faxes can be sent using the transmission log displayed in the Log Viewer.
