Faxing: Basic Operations 35
Real-Time Dialing
Normally, your OKIFAX dials the entire number of the
location you have selected at one time. Occasionally, you
may need to dial numbers in real time—one digit at a
time.
If your OKIFAX is equipped with a handset, you can dial
in real time by picking up the handset, or you can press
the Hook/Voice Request key.
Redialing
If the line is busy or if there is no answer, your OKIFAX
will wait, and then automatically redial the number. The
dial parameter settings determine how many times it will
redial and how long it will wait between attempts—see
page 54 for details.
Also, if your OKIFAX is transmitting from
memory and a communication error occurs, it will auto-
matically redial the number and try to resend the fax.
1 When selecting locations, press the Search key. The display
will show ENTER 1'ST CHAR.
2 Repeatedly press the Search key to look through the entire
list of locations in alphabetical order, or locate the letter
you want on the numeric keypad, and press that key
repeatedly to look through Location IDs beginning with
that letter.
You can redial a number manually at any time by pressing the
Redial key.
Note: If a power loss occurs, the redial information is lost—
see “Power Failures and Memory,” page 38.
Confirming Results
After transmission, press the Copy key once (with no docu-
ments loaded) to see the result of your transmission on the
display. To print the report, press the Copy key a second time.
See the chapter on Reports for more information (page 56).
Stopping a Transmission
To stop a transmission in progress, follow the instructions
below.
1 Press the Stop key twice. The display shows STOPPED.
2 If documents are stuck partway through the document
feeder, you may see a RELOAD DOCUMENT message on
the display. Press the Stop key again. Your OKIFAX feeds the
document the rest of the way through the document feeder.
Shortcut Fax Number Programming
This convenient feature lets you program a number into your
OKIFAX for future use while you’re sending a fax to it. It
even finds the first available One Touch key (or Auto Dial
number, if all the One Touch keys are programmed) for you
to program.
