Delayed transmission
Take advantage of lower evening and weekend long-distance rates with delayed
transmission. Your fax machine can store up to 99 delayed transmission commands,
each of which you can program up to 31 days in advance.
Important: If you program a full 99 delayed transmission commands, no further
memory transmission is possible until the machine performs at least one
of the delayed commands. (To review memory transmission, see page
1.23.) however, you always can transmit from the feeder by using on-
hook dialling or an optional handset.
Setting up a delayed transmission
Important: Your machine remembers only the day of the month, not the month
itself, when it’s supposed to perform a delayed transmission. So, if, say,
you want your fax to do something at 5:05
PM on June 26, don’t make
that setting sooner than 5:06 PM on May 26.
To set up a delayed transmission:
1. Press COPY / FAX to change to Fax mode, if necessary.
2. Insert the document and make any necessary adjustment as usual.
3. Press COMMUNICATION OPTIONS . The display will show:
1.Delayed
Comm.Option/Enter
4. Press ENTER . The display shows the current day of the month, followed by the
current time (in 24-hour format, as you’ll recall):
Delayed
Enter Time: 06/17:16
5. Use the numeric keypad to enter the day of the month and the time when you
want the fax to perform the delayed transmission.
Note: To move the cursor to a specific digit, press to move the cursor
leftward, or to move it rightward, to that digit.
Here, we’ve set the transmission to occur on the 11th at 11:05 PM :
Delayed
Enter Time: 11/23:05
6. When the date and time entry is as you wish, press ENTER to save the delayed
transmission. The display shows:
Enter Fax Number
_
7. Enter the fax number to which the delayed transmission should go. You may
either press a one-touch key, enter a speed-dial number or just use the numeric
keypad normally.
Note: If you make a mistake or want to erase characters entered in a previous
setting, press
CANCEL to erase leftward. Or, if you want to change just
one character in the number, press to move the cursor leftward or
to move it rightward, to that character and press CANCEL to erase it.
Then re-enter until the number is just as you want it.
8. Press START . Your machine will return to its normal standby mode, while
showing this on the display:
** Reserved **
Sep 6 1998 17:17
This means your fax machine is “reserved” for the delayed transmission
command you just programmed.
If you had set the machine for transmission from memory, it will scan the
document into memory, after which you can use the machine normally.
If you had set the machine for transmission from the ADF , the machine can
receive faxes but can’t transmit.
