54 Sending Faxes
Memory Transmission and Direct
Transmission
There are two methods for sending documents with this machine: memory trans-
mission and direct transmission.
Memory Transmission
With this method, the fax transmission starts after the entire document is
scanned and stored in the memory. The total number of pages is automatically
printed with the page number in the header. However, the memory may become
full if there are many pages in the document or if the data is large due to the fine
image quality (resolution).
Direct Transmission
With this method, the transmission is performed in real time in the transmission
sequence of the destinations. If there are many pages in the document, the fax
can be sent with this method without the memory becoming full.
