If there are faxes in memory when you turn the Fax Storage OFF, the screen prompts you to erase any faxes in memory. If you press 1, all fax data is erased and Fax Storage is turned OFF. If the fax data in memory has not been printed before, it will be printed first, and then erased. If you press 2, data is not erased, and Fax Storage remains ON. Backup Print If you've set FAX STORAGE to ON, the machine automatically prints fax messages as they are received into memory. This is a safety feature in case the power goes out for several days so you won't lose the messages. Fax Forwarding You cannot use Fax Forwarding when "Fax Storage" is set to OFF.
