Resending Faxes (Redialing Busy Number)

There are two methods of redialing: Automatic redialing and Manual redialing.

Automatic Redialing

If you send a document and the recipient's line is busy, the printer will redial the number after a specified interval.

Enable and specify the automatic redialing setting on Auto redial in Advanced fax settings under Fax settings.
- Advanced fax settings
Note
- To cancel automatic redialing, delete the unsent fax from the printer's memory while the printer is on-standby for a redial operation. For details, see Deleting Document in Printer's Memory.
Manual Redialing

You can redial to the recipients dialed using the Numeric buttons.
- Manual Redialing

Important

It may be possible that faxes will reach unintended recipients due to the misdialing or incorrect registration of fax/telephone numbers. When you send important documents, we recommend that you send them after speaking on the telephone.

Automatic redialing is enabled by default.
