Substitute Reception
If any of the conditions listed below
are met, the machine automatically
switches to Memory Reception mode
and stores messages in memory in-
stead of printing them. This reception
mode, in which a received fax mes-
sage is stored in memory unprinted,
is called Substitute Reception. Mes-
sages received using Substitute Re-
ception are automatically printed
when the condition which caused the
machine to use Substitute Reception
is rectified. Substitute Reception takes
place when:
•Paper runs out
Toner runs out
Paper is jammed
A cover is open
A fax is received during a copy or
print run
Limitation
Reception may not take place if
there is not enough free memory
left.
Note
The Receive File indicator lights to
let you know when message(s)
have been received using Substi-
tute Reception.
If free memory reaches 0% during
Substitute Reception, any further
reception becomes impossible and
the current communication is ter-
minated.
Screening Out Messages from
Anonymous Senders
To help you screen out unwanted
messages that may fill up machine
memory, the machine can be pro-
grammed to only use Substitute Re-
ception under the following
conditions.
Four settings are available:
Enabled unconditionally (Free)
Enabled for Own Name/Own Fax
Number is received
Enabled for Polling ID match
Disabled (Reception off)
Note
The default setting is "When Own
Name or Own Fax Number is re-
ceived", only storing messages
when the Own Name/Own Fax
Number is present. You can
change this with the User Parame-
ters. See P.72 “User Parameters”
(Switch05, Bit2,1).
Even if the sender does not have an
Own Name or Own Fax Number,
the machine will still receive mes-
sages using Substitute Reception
if:
Paper becomes jammed while
the power switch is on
For some reason printing is not
possible for example when copy
job is in progress
The machine must be of the same
manufacturer and matches the
Polling ID.
