4-3Sending faxeS1234567891011121314A Sending faxeSSending methodThe following three sending methods are available on your machine.Memory transmission:For a normal memory transmission, your machine: (1) scans the entire document intomemory, (2) dials the other fax machine, and (3) transmits the document.Quick memory transmission:For a quick memory transmission, your machine doesn’t wait to scan all pages intomemory before dialing. After it scans the first page of your document, your machine willdial the other fax machine. When it makes contact, your machine transmits the storeddocument from memory while at the same time scanning the remaining pages of yourdocument into memory.The quick memory transmission is defaulted to “On”. However, you can turn it “Off” forthe default. (See “Fax settings” on page 10-5.)Real-time transmission:In the following cases, the machine doesn’t use memory for fax sending• When memory transmission is turned off.• When you are sending a fax using on-hook dialing by pressing the soft key in whichthe soft key in which“Monitor” is assigned or using an external telephone handset.(“Monitor” has already been assigned to a soft key as default.)• When the machine’s memory is fullIn Real time transmission, the next page will not scan until the current page has beentransmitted.Notes for real time transmissions:• Only one destination can be dialedMemory overflow messageIn normal memory transmission, if you have stored too much information in yourmachine’s memory, a “Memory Overflow” message will appear on the LCD:Memory OverflowStart Or CancelThis appears because (1) too many pages have been stored in the memory, or (2) thepages that are stored have too much information on them for your machine to remember.If this message appears, press to tell your machine to keep as many pages inmemory as possible, or press to erase all pages stored during the currentoperation (but not previous operations).Dividing a large document into smaller batches will help you avoid this error.Use real time transmissions to avoid these problems. (See “Real-time transmission,” page4-5.)NOTEIf the machine is idle for 3 minutes, the machine will automatically erase any documentstored in memory during the last operation.
