							Using billing codes
If the billing codes feature has been turned on, the user will be asked to enter a billing code
for each fax. The billing number is credited for each fax page that is sent. This includes all
types of faxes except for poll-received, fax-forwarded, or computer-downloaded faxes. For
an undefined group or a group-dial fax, the billing number is credited for each successful fax
that is sent to each destination. To print a report that shows the total for each billing code,
see 
Printing the billing-code report.
The factory-set default for the billing-code setting is Off. The billing code can be any number

							Reprinting a fax
If you want to reprint a fax because the print cartridge was empty or if the fax was printed on
the wrong type of media, you can try to reprint it. The amount of memory that is available
determines the actual number of faxes that are stored for reprinting. The most recent fax
prints first; the oldest fax that is in storage prints last.
These faxes are stored continuously. Reprinting them does not clear them from the memory.
To clear these faxes from the memory, see 
Deleting faxes from memory.
To reprint a fax
Use the following steps to reprint a fax:
Note
You do not need to use this procedure if the fax does not print because of a jam or because
the media is completely depleted. During these situations, faxes are received to memory. As
soon as you clear the jam or replenish the media, fax printing automatically resumes.
1. On the device control panel, press M
ENU.

NTER. The device begins reprinting the most recently printed fax.
Note
To stop the printing at any time, press CANCEL.

							Using fax forwarding
You can set your device to forward incoming faxes to another fax number. When the fax
arrives at your device, it is stored in the memory. The device then dials the fax number that
you have specified and sends the fax. If the device cannot forward a fax because of an error
(for example, the number is busy) and repeated redial attempts are unsuccessful, your
device prints the fax.
If the device runs out of memory while receiving a fax, it terminates the incoming fax and
only forwards the pages and partial pages that have been stored in the memory.
When it is using the fax-forwarding feature, the device (rather than the computer) must be
receiving the faxes, and the answer mode must be set to Automatic (see 
Setting the answer
mode).
To use fax forwarding
1. On the device control panel, press MENU.
2. Use the < or the > button to select Fax setup, and then press E
NTER.
3. Use the < or the > button to select Fax Recv. setup, and then press E
NTER.
4. Use the < or the > button to select Forward fax, and then press E
NTER.
5. Press the > button to select On or Off, and then press E
NTER.
6. If you turn on the fax-forwarding feature, use the alphanumeric buttons to specify the fax
number where the fax is to be sent, and then press E
NTER to save your selection.

							Making an extension telephone available to receive faxes
With this setting turned on, you can alert the device to pick up the incoming fax call by
pressing 1-2-3 sequentially on the telephone keypad (in tone-dial mode only). The default
setting is On. Turn this setting off only if you use pulse dialing or if you have a service from
your telephone company that also uses the 1-2-3 sequence. The telephone company
service does not work if it conflicts with the device.
To make an extension telephone available to receive faxes
1. On the device control panel, press MENU.
2. Use the < or the > button to select Fax setup, and then press E
NTER.
3. Use the < or the > button to select Fax Recv. setup, and then press E

							Changing the silence-detect mode
This setting controls whether or not you can receive faxes from older-model fax machines
that do not emit a fax signal during fax transmissions. At the time of this publication, these
silent-model fax machines represented very few of the fax machines in use. The default
setting is Off. The silence-detect mode setting should be changed only if you regularly
receive faxes from someone who uses an older-model fax machine.
To change the silence-detect mode
1. On the device control panel, press MENU.
2. Use the < or the > button to select Fax setup, and then press E
NTER.
3. Use the < or the > button to select Fax Recv. setup, and then press E

received faxes is Off.
Note
This option applies only to received faxes that the device prints.
To make stamp-received faxes available

							Setting the fax-error-correction mode
Usually, the device monitors the signals on the telephone line while it is sending or receiving
a fax. If the device detects an error during the transmission and the error-correction setting is
On, the device can request that the portion of the fax be resent. The factory-set default for
error correction is On.
You should turn off error correction only if you are having trouble sending or receiving a fax,
and you are willing to accept the errors in the transmission. Turning off the setting might be
useful when you are trying to send a fax overseas, or receive one from overseas, or if you
are using a satellite telephone connection.
To change the error-correction setting
1. On the device control panel, press MENU.
2. Use the < or the > button to select Fax setup, and then press E
NTER.
3. Use the < or the > button to select All faxes, and then press E
NTER.
4. Use the < or the > button to select Error correction, and then press E
NTER.
5. Use the < or the > button to select On or Off, and then press E
NTER to save your
selection.
