Subaddress Communications

In subaddress communications, faxes are sent and received using
subaddresses – – numbers or character strings that conform to
conventions adopted by many fax machine manufacturers. Subaddresses
support confidential fax, previously possible only between machines from
the same manufacturer. The FAX System uses subaddress boxes to
exchange confidential faxes with other parties. Receiving these faxes in
the FAX System doesn’t require a subaddress password. If the other
party’s machine requires passwords, specify the password when sending
to them.

NOTE:

This function requires that the other party’s fax machine support

subaddress communications.

Subaddress communication can be combined with other fax functions.
You can save time when using this function by assigning subaddresses
and passwords beforehand to one-touch dial keys or to Address Book
entries. For more information, refer to the instructions for these functions
and the instructions for assigning keys.

Subaddresses Used by the FAX System

The FAX System uses subaddresses as well as passwords for subaddress
communication.

Subaddresses

When specifying a receiving party to receive a confidential fax, you must
enter their subaddress, just as they must specify yours when sending to
you. Subaddresses must also be specified for subaddress boxes where
confidential faxes are received. The length of the maximum subaddress
depends on the other party’s fax machine. If the subaddresses do not
comply with the supported length, confidential fax is not possible. Before
using subaddresses, confirm the other party’s subaddress. The FAX
System supports subaddresses of up to 20 characters, consisting of
numbers, asterisks [*], the sharp symbol [#], and spaces.

Passwords

The FAX System does not use passwords when receiving confidential
faxes. Passwords are used if required by the other party’s fax machine.
The maximum password length depends on the other machine. If the
passwords do not comply with the supported length, confidential fax is not
possible. Before using subaddresses, confirm the other party’s password.
The FAX System supports passwords of up to 20 characters, consisting of
numbers, asterisks [*], the sharp symbol [#], and spaces.
