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.
