Reprint received faxes from memory
If you turn on the Backup fax Reception, received faxes
are stored in memory, whether the printer has an error
condition or not.
Note: All faxes stored in memory are deleted from
memory when you turn off the power. For more
information about using this feature, see the user
guide (which is available on your computer after you
install the software).
Receive a fax manually
When you are on the phone, the person you are speaking
with can send you a fax while you are still connected
(called “manual faxing”).
You can receive faxes manually from a phone that is
connected to the printer (through the 2-EXT port) or a
phone that is on the same phone line (but not directly
connected to the printer).
1. Make sure the printer is turned on and you have paper
loaded in the main tray.
2. Remove any originals from the document feeder tray.
3. Set the Rings to Answer setting to a high number to
allow you to answer the incoming call before the
printer answers. Or turn off the Auto Answer setting so
that the printer does not automatically answer
incoming calls.
4. If you are currently on the phone with the sender,
instruct the sender to press Start on their fax machine.
5. When you hear fax tones from a sending fax machine,
do the following:
a. Touch Fax, and then select Start Black or Start
Color.
b. After the printer begins to receive the fax, you can
hang up the phone or remain on the line. The
phone line is silent during fax transmission.
1. Make sure you have paper loaded in the main tray.
2. Touch right arrow and then touch Setup.
3. Touch Tools, and then touch Reprint Faxes in Memory.
The faxes are printed in the reverse order from which
they were received with the most recently received fax
printed rst, and so on.
4. If you want to stop reprinting the faxes in memory,
touch (Cancel).
