Receiving faxes in memory
Since your printer is a multi-tasking device, it can receive faxes while you
are making copies or printing. If you receive a fax while you are copying or
printing, your printer stores incoming faxes in its memory. Then, as soon as
you finish copying or printing, the printer automatically prints the fax.
Also, your printer receives faxes and stores them in its memory when there
is no paper in the tray or no toner in the installed toner cartridge.
