Sending a Fax to the Registered Recipient

Registering recipient's fax/telephone number and name in the machine's directory enables you to send faxes easily.

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, it is recommended that you send them after speaking on the telephone.
