Re-dialing When the Line is Busy

If the other party’s line is busy or if there is no answer, the fax waits two
minutes and then dials the same number again. This feature is called
automatic redialing.

What is Automatic Redialing?

After the initial dial attempt, the fax will wait two minutes and try to dial
again. If the second attempt fails, the fax will again wait for two minutes
and make a final attempt to complete the call.

Even if the fax machine is set to redial several times, it will redial only
once if there is no tone or there is a ring back tone during the first
attempt.

Auto redial can be turned off and on. The number of redialing attempts
and the time interval between attempts can be set up with the auto redial
feature. (

➞6-20, 16-11)

While the fax is waiting to redial, the following messages are displayed
alternately:

12/31/1999 FRI 09:30
AUTO REDIAL

12/31/1999 FRI 09:30
TX/RX NO.

If both redial attempts are unsuccessful the fax will cancel the transac-
tion, display the following message, and print an Error TX report to
remind you that the transmission was not completed.

12/31/1999 FRI 09:30
