Fax Send Settings:
Direct Send:

Sends a monochrome fax while scanning the originals. Since scanned originals are not stored temporarily in the printer's memory even when sending a large volume of pages, you can avoid printer errors due to a lack of memory. Note that sending using this feature takes longer than not using this feature. See the related information below on this topic.

You cannot use this feature when:

  • Sending a fax using the ADF 2-Sided option

  • Sending a fax to multiple recipients

Priority Send:

Sends the current fax before other faxes waiting to be sent. See the related information below on this topic.

Send Fax Later:

Sends a fax at a time you specified. Only a monochrome fax is available when using this option. See the related information below on this topic.

Add Sender Information:
  • Add Sender Information

    Select the position where you want to include the header information (sender name and fax number) in the outgoing fax, or not to include the information.

    - Off: Sends a fax with no header information.

    - Outside of Image: Sends a fax with header information in the top white margin of the fax. This keeps the header from overlapping with the scanned image, however, the fax received by the recipient may be printed across two sheets depending on the size of the originals.

    - Inside of Image: Sends a fax with header information approximately 7 mm lower than the top of the scanned image. The header may overlap with the image, however, the fax received by the recipient will not be split into two documents.

  • Fax Header
