FAX Backup Kit
The FAX Backup Kit is a 128 MB microchip card that you can use to back
up important data. Call a service representative for mounting or removal of
the card.
You can use the FAX Backup Kit to back up the following data:
• i-FAX reception data
• Data stored in FAX Boxes
• Job accounting data
NOTE: Fax and i-FAX transmission data and fax reception data is
backed up on the hard disk in the machine and on the fax board.
Received fax data to be backed up
i-FAX reception data
• All incoming fax data is backed up. Since data is backed up
automatically at the time of its reception, no special operation is
required.
• The backup data is erased when:
Data is printed properly, or
Data is forwarded properly.
• If the FAX Backup Kit runs out of space during fax reception, a
communication error occurs and reception stops. Print or delete some
of the data in the FAX Box to increase the available space. (Refer to
page 5-39.) If printing stops due to such trouble as paper running out
or a paper jam, resolve the problem and restart printing. (Refer to the
machine’s Operation Guide.)
Data stored in FAX Boxes
• Since data is backed up automatically when it is stored, no special
operation is required.
• The backup data is erased when the data in the FAX Boxes is deleted.
