Remote Fax Options
Setting Fax Storage
Memory Receive must be switched to ON for Faxes to be received into memory. (See Reception into
Memory, page 28)
If you set Fax Storage to ON, you will be able to retrieve fax messages from another location, using
Fax Forwarding or Remote Retrieval functions. The screen will indicate when you have a fax stored
in memory.
1
Press Menu, 2, 5, 2.
2
Press or to select ON (or OFF), and press Set when the screen displays your selection.
3
Press Stop/Exit.
Backup Print
If you’ve set FAX STORAGE to ON, the machine automatically prints fax messages as they are
received into memory. This is a safety feature in case the power goes out for several days so you
won’t lose the messages.
Fax Forwarding
Programming a Fax Forwarding Number
When Fax Forwarding and Fax Storage are set to ON, the machine stores the received fax in
memory, then dials the fax machine phone number you’ve programmed, and forwards the fax
message. You can change a Fax Forwarding number remotely. (See Changing the Fax Forwarding
Number, page 49)
1
Press Menu, 2, 5, 1.
2
Press or to select ON (or OFF), and press Set.
The screen prompts you to enter the number of the fax machine where faxes will be forwarded.
3
Enter the forwarding number (up to 20 digits), and press Set.
4
Press Stop/Exit.
If there are faxes in memory when you turn the Fax Storage OFF, the screen
prompts you to erase any faxes in memory.
If you press 1, all fax data is erased and Fax Storage is turned OFF. If the fax data
in memory has not been printed before, it will be printed first, and then erased. If
you press 2, data is not erased, and Fax Storage remains ON.
You cannot use Fax Forwarding when “Fax Storage” is set to OFF.
You can also dial into the machine from a remote location to switch this feature on,
or to change the number you want your faxes forwarding to.
