Preventing Transmission to the Wrong Destination

If you want to prevent documents being sent to the wrong destination, you can configure the machine to prompt users twice for the destination, to display the entered destination prior to transmission, or to force the user to press [Add] before adding another destination.

Entering a fax number to confirm the destination

Enter the fax number again to confirm the destination is correct.

Transmission is disabled if the confirmation fax number does not match the first fax number. This function helps prevent users accidentally sending faxes to the wrong destination.

If you want to enable this function, contact your service representative.

When the fax number reentry function is enabled, you cannot use On Hook Dial and Manual Dial.

1Make sure that [Fax] is selected.

4Enter the fax number again, and then press [OK].

If the “Entered destination is not correct.” message appears, press [Exit] and check the fax number again, and then repeat the procedure from Step 2.

Note

  • Please contact your service representative if specifying the number of times (1 to 15) that the fax number must be re-entered. Step 4 must be repeated as many times as is set here.

  • If you want to use On Hook Dial and Manual Dial on your machine while the fax number reentry function is enabled, contact your service representative. Note that the fax number reentry function does not work when you use On Hook Dial or Manual Dial.

Displaying the destination prior to transmission

To prevent documents being sent to the wrong destination, you can configure the machine to display the destination again after it has been entered and before the file is sent.

If you want to enable this function, contact your service representative.

Note that the entered destination will not be displayed again if you are sending the fax by any of the following means:

  • Scanning without entering a destination (storing documents, storing documents in Information Boxes)

  • On Hook Dial

  • Manual Dial

1Specify the destination.

Preventing broadcast errors

To prevent broadcast errors, you can configure the machine to force the user to press [Add] before adding another destination.

If you want to enable this function, turn on the User Parameter (switch 17, bit 2) on the Fax Settings menu.

While this function is being used, a message to press [Add] will appear in the following cases. Press [Add] before adding another destination if:

  • You try to add another destination with the destination key before pressing [Add].

  • You press [Reg. No.] or [Recent] before pressing [Add] when one or more destinations have already been specified.

Also, if you try to add another destination in the [Search Destination] screen, a confirmation message appears. Press [Yes] to add another destination.
