Redialling when the line is busy
There are two methods of redialling: manual redialling and automatic redialling. This section
explains these two methods.
Manual redialling ______________________________
Press [Redial/Pause] to dial the last number you dialled with the numeric buttons. (This starts
redialling regardless of whether automatic redialling is enabled.)
■ Cancelling manual redialling
To cancel manual redialling, press [Stop].
Automatic redialling ___________________________
■ What is automatic redialling?
When you are sending a document and the receiving party’s line is busy, the fax waits the specified
time and then dials the same number again. You can set the fax to redial several times if previous
attempts fail because of a busy signal.
Automatic redialling can be turned off and on. The number of redialling attempts and the time
interval between attempts can also be adjusted (see AUTO REDIAL, p. 8-3).
If all redialling attempts are unsuccessful, the fax will cancel the transmission and print an ERROR
TX REPORT to remind you that the transmission was not completed (see p. 8-7).
When automatic redialling is in use, the LCD displays AUTO REDIAL while it is waiting to redial.
■ Cancelling automatic redialling
Automatic redialling cannot be cancelled with the [Stop] button while the fax is waiting to redial.
1 Wait until the fax begins redialling.
2 Press [Stop].
n If you want to cancel a memory-sending transmission while the fax is waiting to redial, you will
have to delete the document from memory (see p. 5-15).
