Delayed Fax Transmissions.
Relay Faxing
This feature allows you to send documents to one distant fax machine, which then forwards the documents to other fax machines. This reduces the total number of long distance calls.

head offices. The regional office forwards the fax to the local branch offices.
For more information, refer to Advanced Operations, Relay Faxing.

department could have its own password. For more information, see Customizing Features and
Operations, Changing Operation Functions, Restrict Access.

Safety

Installation Hints

· Install your fax machine in a dust-free location away from direct sunlight.
· Do not plug your fax machine into a power source shared by equipment that produces electrical noise (e.g., air conditioners).
· Leave electronic adjustments to authorized service personnel.
· The LINE terminal connects your fax machine to a standard telephone line. To avoid damage to your telephone system or to the fax machine, do not plug your fax machine into anything other than a standard RJ-11C jack.
· Your fax machine is intended to be grounded electrically and is equipped with a three-wire grounded power cord. For your safety, do not attempt to defeat your power cord’s grounding plug.
· The electrical outlet and phone jack should be installed near the equipment and should be easily accessible.
· The two TEL terminals on the back of the fax machine are only suitable for 2–wire devices. Not all standard telephones will respond to incoming calls when connected to an extension jack.
· This equipment may not necessarily provide for the effective hand-over of a call from a telephone connected to the same line.
· The operation of this equipment on the same line as telephone or other equipment with audible warning devices (such as call waiting) or automatic ring detectors may cause false tripping of the ring detector.
Users Guide: English 33
|

Operation and Maintenance

· Use a dry cloth to clean the control panel and the main body of the unit.
· Aside from the instructions specifically mentioned in this document, your fax machine is not user serviceable. Do not attempt to service the machine or lubricate moving parts by yourself.
· Pull out the AC plug before trying to remove any objects that may have fallen into the machine.
· Immediately disconnect the fax machine if it becomes physically damaged and arrange for its repair or disposal.
· When relocating your fax machine, always disconnect the telephone line before disconnecting the power cord, then reconnect the power cord first.
· This fax machine is not intended to be used in parallel with any other telephone devices.

Toner Cartridge and Image Drum Handling

· Leave unused toner cartridges and image drums in their packages until needed. When replacing a toner cartridge or image drum, re-use the packaging to dispose of the old toner cartridge or image drum.
· Do not expose these components to light for more than five minutes. Never expose the green drum (inside the image drum unit) to direct sunlight.
· Always hold the image drum by the ends—never by the middle. Never touch the green drum inside the image drum unit.
· Exercise care when removing the toner cartridge. Do not let it touch your clothing or porous materials. The toner powder causes permanent stains.
· Small amounts of toner spilled on skin or clothing can be readily removed with soap and cold water. Using warm water will make removing the stain much more difficult.

is a fax or a voice call. When the call is from another fax machine, your machine switches to fax mode and receives the message. When the call is a voice call, your machine rings like a telephone. If you do not answer, it switches back to fax mode to allow the calling party to manually send a fax.

Telephone Answering Device Mode [TAD]

You have an external, optional answering machine connected to your fax machine.
In this mode, your machine detects whether an incoming call is a fax or voice call. If it is a fax call, your machine receives the fax. If it is a voice call, your machine rings, then your answering machine activates. If you set the Remote Receive user function, the caller can send a fax at any time during or after the recorded message by using their keypad to enter the remote receive number you have programmed. This number activates fax reception. Add something like this to your answering machine message: To send a fax now, press XX [the programmed number].
See Setting Basic Features, Dial and Incoming Call Parameter Settings, Incoming Call Parameters.

Forwarding Mode [FWD]

All fax communications are received into memory, then forwarded to another telephone number.

Delayed Fax vs. Delayed Batch

A delayed fax transmission is one fax sent to one location, group, or broadcast, at a time and date specified by you.
A delayed batch transmission is a little more complicated. In a delayed batch transmission, faxes to a single location are
not sent until a specified time. The faxes are sent at the same time every day.
Imagine that your fax machine is located in the main office, and you send faxes to your sales force. Your machine can be programmed to hold all documents being sent to a fax number (salesperson) until a time you specify. When it is the specified time, all held documents are sent to the number.
The numbers programmed into One-Touch Keys 31 through 40 are used for delayed batch transmissions.
Delayed Batch Transmissions can ONLY use One Touch
!
Keys 31 through 40.

Relay Faxing

What is an example of Relay Faxing? Imagine that you need to send a fax to a number of locations in another area code. With Relay Faxing, you (the relay initiating station) send one fax (transmission) long distance to another machine (the relay key station [hub]). The relay key station (hub) then sends the fax to all of the other machines/locations in the area code, at local rates.
Relay faxing allows one machine to send a document to another machine, which then forwards the document to a number of other locations. Two different machines are involved in transmitting a relay fax: the relay initiating station and the relay key station (hub).
Your machine can function as an initiating station and a relay key station (hub).
The relay key station (hub) can send a confirmation report to the relay initiating station when the relay fax session is complete. This confirmation report is called the Relay Broadcast Report.
The relay initiating station and the relay key station
!
(hub) must coordinate efforts before a relay fax can be sent.
Relay Faxing is different from group faxing. In Group
!
Faxing, a fax is sent to a preprogrammed group of locations directly from the fax machine.
At this writing, the OKIFAX 2600 and the OKIFAX
!
5750/5950 Series are the only OKIFAX machines that can function as relay key stations (hubs).
If you cannot access Relay Fax features, contact your
!
service dealer. A Service Function setting (Technical Function 36) may require adjustment.
All machines involved in a Relay Fax should be set to
!
Auto Receive mode. See Setting Basic Features, Setting the Answering Mode.
