    Receiving a Fax Temporarily in the Memory of the Machine (Memory Receiving)
    If the machine was not able to print a received fax, the machine stores the unprinted fax temporarily in its memory (memory receiving). An unsent fax is also stored in the memory. If an error occurred when sending a fax, it is not stored.
    When a fax is stored in the memory, the In Use/Memory lamp lights and the message "Received in memory" appears on the LCD.
    IMPORTANT
    If you disconnect the power plug, all the documents stored in memory are deleted. Send or print necessary documents, or save them on the USB flash drive before disconnecting the power plug.

    If the machine receives a fax under one of the following conditions, the machine will automatically store the received fax in its memory.

    • Ink has run out.
    Replace the empty FINE Cartridge. The fax in memory will be automatically printed.
    NOTE
    • You can set to print received faxes forcibly even if ink has run out. However, a part of contents or all contents of the fax may not be printed since ink has run out. And also, the contents of fax will not be stored in memory.
    • In addition, if ink has already run out, it is recommended that OFF be selected for Auto print to store the received fax in memory while replacing an empty FINE Cartridge with a new one. After replacing the FINE Cartridge, set Auto print back to ON. The received faxes in memory will be printed.

    • Paper has run out.
    Load the paper and press the OK button. The fax in memory will be automatically printed.
    • Paper of a size other than selected for Page size is loaded.
    Load paper of the same size as selected for Page size, and press the OK button. The fax in memory will be automatically printed.
    • A page size other than A4, 8.5"x11"(LTR), or Legal (or 8.5"x14") is selected for Page size.
    Select A4, 8.5"x11"(LTR), or Legal (or 8.5"x14") for Page size.
    See Preparing for Receiving a Fax.
    • A media type other than Plain paper is selected for Media type.
    Select Plain paper for Media type.

    • If the memory becomes full, the machine cannot receive any more faxes. Print or delete the documents stored in memory, then have the sender resend the faxes.
