Rotated Transmission
If an A4/Letter-sized document is loaded in the portrait position, it could be interpreted as an A3/Ledger 
size on the receiving station. To avoid this misinterpretation, the machine is configured to support 
Rotated transmission.
Set the Function Parameter “78 Rotation XMT” (Fax/Email Settings > Fax Parameters) to “Va l id”. This 
allows an A4/Letter-size document to be rotated by 90 degrees automatically when they are loaded in 
the portrait position, so that it is transmitted in the same orientation as it would have been loaded in the 
landscape position.
zThe standard setting of “78 Rotation XMT” is set to “Valid”. For instructions on how to change the standard 
setting, refer to Fax/Email Settings in the Operating Instructions (For Function Parameters) of provided 
CD-ROM.
zThe Rotated Transmission feature only works with Memory transmissions, but not with Direct transmissions.

Batch Transmission
The Batch Transmission feature is useful in controlling the reduction of transmission time and 
telephone costs. In a Batch transmission job, the machine sorts documents bound for the same 
destination(s), and collectively handles them as one reserved document (file) to be transmitted in a 
single call.
There are two types of Batch transmissions available:
• Real Time Batch Transmission:
During the Memory transmission, your machine searches the memory for reserved files (up to 4 
files) to transmit to the same destination, and automatically batches, and then transmits them in a 
single call.
zThe machine cannot batch files that are waiting for redialing or currently being sent, but will batch files 
that are pending to be dialed.
• Delayed Batch Transmission:
This feature requires the scheduling of the time for the Batch transmission into a Program key in 
advance. All transmission(s) using this Program key are batched and transmitted at the registered 
time.

operator errors.
To use a Program key, follow the steps below.
zTo use this feature, the operating sequence must be programmed onto the button in advance.
Refer to Setting for Program Dialing (see page 187).
zTo check what operation was pre-programmed onto a program button, confirm by printing the program list.

Dial Prefix
Your machine has the following functions to utilize your existing fax phone numbers database:
• LDAP database search for fax phone numbers (Directory Search)
• Import an existing fax phone number list in CSV file format (Network Address Book Editor software)
The phone numbers in the database are usually 10-digit numbers that are not in the format of phone 
numbers actually dialed through a PBX.
Ex:
• A fax phone number in the database is shown as 212 555 1234
• A long distance fax phone number format that is dialed via a PBX, is as 9+1+212 555 1234
The Dial Prefix function allows you to program a Dial Prefix including a PBX Dial-out Prefix (Ex: “9”) 
and the Long Distance Call Code (=1). The pre-programmed Dial Prefix will be automatically dialed 
only when the fax phone number is a 10-digit number, allowing you to utilize the existing database 
without modifying it.
To enable this function, enter the Dial Prefix number in “122 Dial Prefix”. For more details, refer to Fax/
Email Settings in the Operating Instructions (For Function Parameters) of provided CD-ROM.
zOnly numbers (0 to 9) will be counted for 10 digits. Any other characters or symbols (such as “-”) will be 
ignored.
zThis function is not available when using Monitor dialing or Off-hook dialing with either the optional handset or 
an external telephone set.
If the number to dial is a 10-digit number
(See Note)
Ex: 212 111 1234
If the number to dial is NOT a 10-digit number
Ex: 9-222 9876 (8 digits)
