Dual Access

Dual Access means that even if the machine is already carrying out a task, you
may be able to operate the machine.
For instance, if your machine is currently receiving a long fax message, but you
want to send a message and go back to your desk without having to wait by the
machine, you can place your message in the feeder, select the required transmis-
sion features, dial the number, and press Start. Your message will be scanned
and stored to memory while the machine is still receiving. This means that you
can take your fax back to your desk before it is actually sent. However, to be sure
whether your transmission was successful or not, keep an eye open for Error Re-
ports (or check the Journal).
The following table shows which features can operate simultaneously on your
machine.
