CHAPTER 4 USING CONVENIENT FUNCTIONS 2 TRANSMISSION USING F-CODES This chapter explains F-code transmission, which gives you a convenient means of performing advanced operations such as relay broadcast transmission and confidential transmission. Normally these functions require that the other fax machine be a similar Sharp machine; however, F-code transmission enables these functions to be performed with any other machine that supports F-code transmission.
TRANSMISSION BETWEEN MACHINES SUPPORTING F-CODES This machine supports the "F-code" standard as established by the ITU-T*. Operations such as relay broadcast transmission and confidential transmission previously could only be performed with another Sharp fax machine; however, F-Code communication makes it possible to perform these operations with fax machines of other manufacturers that support F-Code communication.
TRANSMISSION BETWEEN MACHINES SUPPORTING F-CODES ENTERING (DIALING) A FAX NUMBER WITH A SUBADDRESS AND PASSCODE When transmitting to a memory box in another fax machine, the sub-address and passcode must be entered after the other machine's fax number.
F-CODE POLLING MEMORY F-code polling memory allows one fax machine to call another fax machine and activate reception of a document that has been scanned into the other machine's F-code polling memory box. Calling another machine and activating reception is called F-code polling, and scanning a document into a memory box for another machine to retrieve by polling is called F-code polling memory.
F-CODE POLLING MEMORY Checking and clearing document data in a memory box The procedure for checking document data in an F-code polling memory box by printing it and the procedure for clearing data from a box are almost the same as the procedures for printing and clearing document data from the Public Box. Instead of touching the [PUBLIC BOX] key in step 3 of "Printing document data in the Public Box" or "Deleting document data from the Public Box" on page 3-16, touch the key of the desired memory box.
F-CODE CONFIDENTIAL TRANSMISSION F-Code confidential transmission provides a secure means of faxing confidential documents. The sub-address and passcode programmed in the memory box restrict the recipients of the fax, and once received in the memory box, the fax can only be printed by someone who knows the print passcode (PRINT PIN. see page 6-14).
F-CODE CONFIDENTIAL TRANSMISSION PRINTING A DOCUMENT RECEIVED TO AN F-CODE CONFIDENTIAL MEMORY BOX Faxes received in an F-Code confidential memory box are printed out by entering the PRINT PIN 4-digit passcode (0000 to 9999) that was programmed when the box was created. Printing of the confidential faxes takes precedence over any other stored jobs. NOTES You can have a transaction report printed each time a fax is received in an F-Code confidential box to inform you of the reception.
F-CODE RELAY BROADCAST TRANSMISSION The F-Code relay broadcast function allows the machine to act as a relay machine for a broadcast transmission. The end receiving machines are stored in the machine's F-Code relay memory box, and when the machine receives a relay request from another F-Code machine, it will relay the fax to all of the stored end receiving machines.
F-CODE RELAY BROADCAST TRANSMISSION USING THE F-CODE RELAY BROADCAST FUNCTION (your machine is the relay machine) When a document is received from a relay request machine, the F-code relay broadcast function transmits the document to the end receiving machines using a memory box only if the sub-address and passcode sent by the relay request machine are correct. Refer to pages 6-11 through 6-16 for the procedures for creating, editing, and deleting memory boxes.
