Memory Reception

If the printer was not able to print the received fax, the received fax is stored in the printer's memory. The FAX Memory lamp is lit and Received in memory. is displayed at the Fax standby screen.

• If you unplug the power cord, all faxes stored in the printer's memory are deleted. The next time you turn the printer on, press the OK button after a confirmation screen is displayed. The list of the faxes deleted from the printer's memory (MEMORY CLEAR REPORT) will be printed.

If the printer receives a fax under one of the following conditions, the received fax will be automatically stored in the printer's memory.
