Panasonic Digital Imaging System Dp1810f Fax Operating Instructions

							Receiving Documents
61
Basic Operations
This machine can use Letter, Legal or A4 size plain paper for recording.   Sometimes, oversized documents
sent to you by the other parties cannot be printed within a single page. When this occurs, the document will
be divided into separate pages.
This machine is equipped with a Print Reduction function to solve this problem. You may select the most
appropriate setting from the selections described below.
1.Automatic Reduction
Each page of a received document is first stored in memory. Based on the document length, your
machine will automatically calculate the suitable reduction ratio (70% to 100%) to print the entire
document on a single page. If the received document is extremely long (over 39% longer than the
recording paper), the document will be divided into separate pages and print without reduction.
2.Fixed Reduction
You can pre-determine the reduction ratio from 70% to 100% in 1% steps. The document(s) you receive
will be reduced to the fixed ratio regardless of size.
Selecting the Print Reduction Mode
Set Fax Parameters as shown below. (See page 30)
1. To set Automatic Reduction mode.
a) No. 24 Print Reduction set to “Auto”.
2. To set Fixed Reduction mode.
a) No. 24 Print Reduction set to “Fixed”.
b) No. 25 Reduction Ratio set to any number between 70% through 100%. (See Note 1)
Ex:A4 to A4 - 96%
A4 to Letter - 90%
Letter to Letter - 96%
Legal to Letter - 75%
NOTE1. If the sending side is set to print the header on the outside of the copy area, more reduction
ratio will be required.

If the received document is extremely long (over 39% longer than the recording paper), the document will be
divided into separate pages. When printing on separate pages, the bottom 13 mm (0.5 in.) of the first page
will be overlapped on top of the next page.
NOTE1. If the reduction method is set to the Automatic Reduction mode, the document is printed out
with no reduction when printing out separate pages. If the reduction method is set to Fixed
Reduction mode, the document is printed out by the ratio you set in Fax Parameter No. 25.

Basic Operations
If the recording paper runs out or jams or if the toner runs out during reception, the machine automatically
starts receiving documents into its image data memory. Stored documents are printed automatically after
replacing the recording paper or the toner bottle. (See Note 1 and 2)
NOTE1. If the memory overflows, the machine will stop receiving and release the communication line.
The document(s) stored in the memory up to that moment will be printed out.
2. If you wish to turn off the substitute reception function, change the setting of Fax Parameter
No. 22 to Invalid.   (See page 30)

Batch Transmission
To reduce transmission time and cost, this feature allows your machine to accumulate different documents
for the same destination(s) to be transmitted in a single phone call.
Real-Time Batch Transmission
During memory transmission, your machine searches its memory for reserved files (up to 5 files) to transmit
to the same destination, automatically batching and transmitting them in a single phone call.
The following is an example of Real-time Batch Transmission. (See Note 1)
Delayed Batch Transmission
Assign a time for batch transmission to a Program Key in advance. All transmission(s) using the Program
Key are batched and transmitted at the reserved time.
The following is an example of Delayed Batch Transmission.
NOTE1. The machine can not Batch to a file(s) that is/are waiting to Redial or is currently being sent,
but it will Batch to files that are pending to dial.

Polling
Polling means calling other station(s) to retrieve document(s). The other station must know in advance that
you will call and must have document(s) set on the ADF or stored in the memory. You may need to set a
polling password, shared by the other station, to ensure security.
If the polling password does not match with the polled station, your polling request will be refused
automatically.
To set the polling password, follow the steps below.
Make sure that the FAX/EMAIL lamp is ON.  If not, press   to select the FAX/EMAIL MODE.
NOTE1. Polling might not function with all fax machines. We suggest you attempt a trial polling before
you actually poll important document(s).
2. If a password is not set in the polled station, you may poll the other station even though your
machine has a password.

In order to let other stations poll your machine, you must prepare your machine with a document stored in
memory.  Be sure to set the polling password before storing the document into memory.  After being polled,
the documents stored in the memory will be erased automatically.  To retain the documents in memory so
that they can be polled repeatedly change Fax Parameter No. 27 (POLLED FILE SAVE) to Valid.
Make sure that the FAX/EMAIL lamp is ON.  If not, press   to select the FAX/EMAIL MODE.
NOTE1. You can still send or receive documents even when set to be polled.
2. Only 1 polled file can be stored in memory. If you need to add document(s) into the same
polled file, see page 84.
3. If you have set the polling password in Fax Parameter No. 26, the password will appear on the
display.  You can still change the password temporarily by overwriting it with a new one.
