Substitute Reception

89

If any of the conditions listed below
are met, the machine automatically
switches to Memory Reception mode
and stores messages in memory in-
stead of printing them. This reception
mode, in which a received fax mes-
sage is stored in memory and not
printed, is called Substitute Recep-
tion. Messages received using Substi-
tute Reception are automatically
printed when the condition which
caused the machine to use Substitute
Reception is rectified. Substitute Re-
ception takes place when:
• Paper runs out
• Toner runs out
• Paper is jammed
• The side cover is open
• A fax is received during a copy or

print run

❒ Reception may not take place if

there is not enough free memory
left.

❒ The Receive File indicator lights to

let you know when message(s)
have been received using Substi-
tute Reception.

❒ By default this feature is turned on.

Switch it off with the User Parame-
ters.

❒ If free memory reaches 0% during

Substitute Reception, any further
reception becomes impossible and

the current communication is ter-
minated.

To help you screen out unwanted
messages that may fill up your mem-
ory, the machine can be programmed
to only use Substitute Reception for
messages that arrive with RTI/CSI
identification.
Two settings are available:
• “When RTI or CSI is received”
• “Free”

❒ The default setting is “When RTI

or CSI is received”, i.e. only store
messages when the RTI/CSI is
present. You can change this with
the User Parameters.

❖

The machine switches to Substi-
tute Reception only when the
sender has programmed their RTI
or CSI. If the power is switched off
for more than an
 hour, all the messages received
into memory are deleted. In such a
case, the Power Failure Report or
the Journal can be used to identify
which messages are lost so you can
ask the senders to transmit them
again.

❒ If a sender has not programmed

their RTI or CSI, the machine
may reject an important fax
message. We recommend that
