Checking the Dial Tone before Sending
The following redirection problem may occur with certain kinds of fax machines on the market made by companies other than Canon. The Check Dial Tone Before Sending mode prevents this rare occurrence from happening. If you are sending a fax document from your machine at the same time another fax machine (made by a company other than Canon) is trying to send you a fax, your fax document may end up being redirected to that fax machine, instead of the original destination you had intended. Setting the Check Dial Tone Before Sending mode to 'On' enables you to avoid such sending problems.
This mode can be set when the Fax function is available for use. For information on the optional products required to use the Fax function, see "Optional Products Required for Each Function."
