Settings

Description

[F-Code TX]

Select whether to use F-Code TX.

F-Code TX is a function that sends documents to a destination by entering a SUB address and a sender ID (communication password) of a specific user box. The remote machine must support the F-Code TX/RX. Faxing is possible without specifying a sender ID (communication password). This setting is used for Confidential Communication, Relay Distribution, or PC-Fax RX.

[ON] is specified by default.

[Relay RX]

Select whether to use this machine as a fax relaying station.

If this machine is used as a relaying station, it is possible to receive a fax from a remote machine and automatically relay it to multiple programmed destinations.

[ON] is specified by default.

[Relay Printing]

Select whether to distribute and print a received fax when this machine is used as a fax relaying station.

[OFF] is specified by default.

[Destination Check Display Function]

Select whether to show a list of specified destinations before sending a fax.

Select [ON] if you want to check destinations before sending a fax. Using this function helps to prevent wrong transmission or not forget sending of a fax. If necessary, select whether to request the user to enter the password for approving the transmission after showing a list of specified destinations. Select [ON] from [TX Approval Password], then enter the password to approve the transmission (using up to 64 characters).

To change the password, select the [Password is changed.] check box, then enter a new password.

[OFF] is specified by default.

[Confirm Address (TX)]

Select whether to require the user to enter a fax number twice to send a fax by directly entering the fax number.

This is helpful to prevent a fax from being sent to an incorrect destination.

[OFF] is specified by default.

[Confirm Address (Register)]

Select whether to require the user enter a fax number twice to register it when, for example, registering a destination or forwarding destination.

This is helpful to prevent the fax number from being incorrectly registered.

[OFF] is specified by default.

[PIN Code Display Mask Function]

Configure a setting to prevent display of the PIN code in a fax report or job history when adding a personal ID (PIN code) to a fax number in order to send a fax.

If [ON] is selected, specify the separator to identify the PIN code. To specify the sending destination, enclose the PIN code with the separators you selected in this option.

[OFF] is specified by default.

When [PIN Code Display Mask Function] is set to [ON], the following functions are not available.

  • [Fax Settings] - [Function Setting] - [Incomplete TX Hold]

  • [Fax Settings] - [Header/Footer Position] - [Print Receiver's Name]
