  • Page 24: About The Spf

    ABOUT THE SPF If a SPF is installed, you can load multiple sheet originals (up to the sheet limit) in the SPF. The originals will be automatically scanned one-by-one into memory. As there is need to load each sheet manually, this saves times when faxing multi-page originals. If the optional RSPF is installed, two-sided originals can be automatically scanned into memory.
  • Page 25: Loading Originals

    LOADING ORIGINALS Using the SPF Use the SPF to fax multi-page originals. Do not load originals that are different sizes even if the widths are the same. This may cause misfeeds. Up to 30 pages can be loaded in the SPF as long as the stack does not exceed the indicator line. Make sure that an original has not been left on the platen glass, and then adjust the original guides to the width of the original.
  • Page 26: Using The Platen Glass

    LOADING ORIGINALS Using the Platen Glass In addition to sheet originals, originals that cannot be loaded in the SPF such as books, originals that are glued together, and originals with cut-outs can be scanned from the platen glass. Open the SPF and place the original on the platen glass. Place the original face down.
  • Page 27: Setting The Original Size

    SETTING THE ORIGINAL SIZE If you load a non-standard or special size original, set the original size. In addition to inch-based sizes, you can also select A4 and A4R sizes.

  • Page 29: Convenient Dialing Features

    CONVENIENT DIALING FEATURES Auto Dialing This machine has auto-dial numbers to simplify the dialing process. By storing the fax number and name of destinations that you frequently use, you can call and send faxes to those destinations without having to dial the full number. (See page 32) To use an auto dial number, you must first store the fax number and name of the destination.
  • Page 30: Redialing

    CONVENIENT DIALING FEATURES Redialing The machine retains the last fax or phone number dialed with the numeric keys. If you need to dial that number again, simply press the REDIAL key. If you pressed a numeric key while talking during the previous call, the REDIAL key may not dial the correct number.

    Normally, confidential communication and relay request transmission can only be performed if the other machine is a Sharp machine that supports those functions. However, F-codes as established by the ITU-T can be programmed in the machine to enable confidential communication and relay request transmission with any other machine that supports those F-code functions.
  • Page 92 F-CODE COMMUNICATION A document sent by F-code transmission will be sent as a confidential document if the memory box in the receiving machine that matches the specified sub-address and passcode is an F-code confidential box. If the memory box in the receiving machine that matches the specified sub-address and passcode is an F-code relay group box, the receiving machine will receive the F-code transmission data as a relay machine and in turn send the transmitted document to each of the end receiving machines in the relay group.
