Sending a Fax to a Registered Recipient
Registering a recipient's fax / telephone number and name in the printer's directory enables you to send faxes easily.
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, we recommend that you send them after speaking on the telephone.
Learn how to send a fax by manually entering the fax number of the recipient on the operation panel.
