Receiving a Fax Temporarily in the Memory of the Machine
(Memory Receiving)
If the machine was not able to print a received fax, the machine stores the unprinted fax temporarily in its
memory (memory receiving). An unsent fax is also stored in the memory. If an error occurred when
sending a fax, it is not stored.
When a fax is stored in the memory, the
In Use/Memory lamp lights and the message "Received in
memory." appears on the LCD.
Important
If you disconnect the power plug, all the documents stored in memory are deleted. Send or print
necessary documents, or save them on the memory card or USB flash drive before disconnecting
the power plug.
If the machine receives a fax under one of the following conditions, the machine will automatically store
the received fax in its memory.
Ink has run out.
Replace the empty ink tank. The fax in memory will be automatically printed.
Note
You can set to print received faxes forcibly even if ink has run out.
However, a part of contents or all contents of the fax may not be printed since ink has run
out. And also, the contents of fax will not be stored in memory.
In addition, if ink has already run out, it is recommended to that OFF be selected for Auto
print to store the received fax in memory while replacing an empty ink tank with a new
one. After replacing the ink tank, set Auto print back to ON. The received faxes in memory
will be printed.
