- Reduction Rate Equalization On (Example Diagram: Two-page Printout) -
1. The machine determines how many pages will be needed to print the message,
taking the following into account:
The final page (n) is such that the received image length is within (paper length
x n) + 20 mm
The data must be reduced to fit on pages of length (paper length - 4 mm), with
an equal reduction rate for each page
The last 10 mm of the previous page will be repeated at the top of the next
page (this length can be adjusted or repetition can be disabled).
2. The machine prints all the pages, at the same reduction rate.
If the customer does not want to receive a fax message on separate pages, page
separation can be disabled. However, once it has been disabled, the machine will
not print the received fax message until a paper size which can hold the received
fax image on one page is set in a cassette. Keep page separation enabled if the
customer expects to receive fax messages longer than the installed paper.
