Checking the Connection to the Recipient Before Sending (Direct Send)

Document number: A0YC-1EX
To successfully send a fax to the destination you intend, you can check that the destination fax machine is able to communicate before sending the fax.
Since the machine sends the scanned data directly without storing it in the memory, you can send faxes even if no memory is available.
