Dual access

You can dial a number and start scanning the

printing PC data. The LCD shows the new job

The number of pages you can scan into the

while scanning a document, press
Stop/Exit to cancel or Black Start to send
the scanned pages.
Real time transmission 5
When you are sending a fax, the machine will
scan the document into the memory before
sending. Then, as soon as the telephone line
is free, the machine will start dialing and
sending.
If the memory is full and you are sending a
black and white fax from the ADF, the
machine will send the document in real time
(even if Real Time TX is set to Off). Color
faxes and faxes from the scanner glass
cannot be sent until you clear some of the
memory.
Sometimes, you may want to send an
important document immediately, without
waiting for memory transmission. You can
turn on Real Time TX.
