Communication Timeout
If you set a time for Communication Timeout, obtaining address books is cancelled when the Remote Address Book Server is not responding and the set time has elapsed.
This mode can be set when the Remote Fax function is available for use. For information on the optional products required to use the Remote Fax function, see "Optional Products Required for Each Function."
