Wild Cards - Ricoh FAX3800L Operator's Manual

RECEPTION

Wild Cards

This feature greatly enhances the effectiveness of the following features:
Authorized Reception
Forwarding
Memory Lock
Multi Copy
Specified Cassette Selection
In each of these features, you have to store the RTI or CSI of various terminals
that you normally receive fax messages from. Then, when your machine detects
an incoming call, it checks the RTI or CSI of the other terminal, and acts
accordingly.
When you program RTI's for these features, you can program wild cards to
greatly expand the number of terminals that you can specify.
Example: If you wish to accept messages from all 150 branches of XYZ Company
(using Authorized Reception), and forward them on to head office (using
Forwarding), you don't have to store the RTI of each branch of XYZ
Company. Program "XYZ" as a wild card for each of these functions. If
the RTIs of all XYZ branches contain an "XYZ" somewhere in the RTI,
messages coming in from them will be accepted, and sent on to head
office.
CAUTION: This feature cannot recognize spaces.
Example: If you store MAN as a wild card, and a terminal with an RTI that
includes MANCHESTER, HUMAN, or HUMANE calls you, your
machine will recognize MAN as a wild card and accept and/or
forward the message.
