Specify the settings for receiving and forwarding faxes. * Values in bold red text are the default settings for each item. * [Fax Settings] may not be displayed depending on the model, the installed options, and other settings.
ECM (Error Correction Mode) is a function that conducts checking and correction to ensure that corrupted images are not sent when an error occurs during image reception. Here, specify whether the ECM function is used for reception.
If you use ECM reception, error checking is carried out by both the sender and recipient during communication, so the ECM function must also be enabled at the sender’s end.
ECM reception may slow down communication because error checking and correction are conducted during communication. Note also that even when ECM reception is enabled, errors may still occur depending on the state of the phone lines.
Enable ECM transmission on the machine to reduce the number of errors that occur when the machine sends data. [ECM TX]
Specify whether the machine sounds an incoming ring tone if a fax is received when the fax RX mode is set to [Auto] or [Fax/Tel (Auto Switch)]. If you specify [On] in this setting, you can also specify the number of times the incoming ring tone sounds.

Specify whether the machine switches to automatic receive mode (Auto RX) after a set period of time if you do not pick up the receiver for an incoming fax when the fax receive mode is set to [Manual]. If you specify [On] in this setting, you can also specify how long (in seconds) the incoming ring tone sounds before the machine switches to Auto RX.
It may take some time for reception to begin due to factors such as a poor phone line connection. If this occurs, adjust the initial communication speed to a lower level.
Specify whether to reduce images when printing or saving received faxes.
Set the reduction ratio to [Auto] in this setting to reduce images to fit the paper size.
When specifying the reduction ratio, set a value between [97%] and [75%].
To maintain the aspect ratio in reduced images, set the reduction direction to [Vertical/Horizontal]. To reduce images in the vertical direction only, specify [Vertical Only].
Specify whether the content of received faxes is automatically forwarded or saved to a preset destination. If you specify [On] in this setting, also specify the forwarding or save destination and, if needed, the file name.
