F-code communications
This function performs communications using a sub-address or password conforming to ITU-T (International
Telecommunication Union) standards. By creating F-code boxes for which a sub-address or password has
been registered, you can perform communications regardless of the manufacturer or machine type. Utilizing
sub-addresses and passwords enables you to use the following functions.

Description
When the other party has set a secure F-code box, secure F-code communi-
cations can be performed by specifying the sub-address and the password (if
necessary) for that box. Unless the receiver of the security box communication
enters a specific I.D. code, the received document cannot be printed out, which
is essential for transmitting documents that require confidentiality.
When the other party has set an F-code bulletin box, documents can be trans-
mitted to the bulletin box. The stored documents in the bulletin box can be re-
trieved (with F-code polling) by specifying the sub-address of that box. A
password can be specified, as necessary.

Description
This name is displayed on the button on the screen if
registered. If not registered, the sub-address is dis-
played. Up to 16 characters can be entered.
Sub-addresses are numbers used to distinguish the F-
code boxes that have been set in memory. Up to 20 dig-
its can be entered. Numerals, # and * can be registered.
A password is important to prevent documents from be-
ing transmitted/received by mistake. Up to 20 digits can
be entered. Numerals, # and * can be registered. The
same password can be registered for multiple boxes.
The hold time indicates the storage period for the docu-
ment stored in the box. You can set between 0 and 31
days for the storage period. Documents will be retained
indefinitely when 0 days has been set.
Registering an I.D. code enables you to store confiden-
tial documents in an F-code box, by restricting the peo-
ple who can change, print, and delete the box. Up to 4
digits can be registered.
If this setting is enabled, documents cannot be re-
ceived. This enables the box to be used as a bulletin box
specifically for polling transmission. The Auto Print and
Overwrite settings also cannot be set if this setting is en-
abled.
If this setting is enabled, received documents are print-
ed.
If this setting is enabled, previously stored documents
will be overwritten by newly received documents.
If this setting is enabled, stored documents are erased
after transmission.
