Receiving a Fax
This section describes the reception modes and the basic operations for receiving
a fax.
Important
When receiving an important fax, we recommend you confirm the contents
of the received fax with the sender.
The machine may not be able to receive faxes when the amount of free mem-
ory space is low.
If a printing problem occurs, the fax is stored in memory. Stored received doc-
uments are printed as soon as the problem is resolved.
If the machine remains turned off for a certain period of time (for example,
when the power switch is turned off or when there is a power failure), all doc-
uments stored in memory will be lost. Make sure to print out the stored doc-
uments before turning off the power (for example, prior to relocating the
machine).
Note
An external telephone is required to use this machine as a telephone.
Only A4, Letter, or Legal size paper can be used for printing faxes.
If tray 2 is installed, you can select which tray to feed paper from in the
[

setting.
