Receiving Faxes
Two modes are available for receiving faxes: Auto Receive and Manual Receive.
In the Auto Receive mode, reception of a fax from a remote machine begins automatically.
In the Manual Receive mode, reception of a fax from a remote machine is manual. This
mode is convenient for confirming the sender or using an external telephone to confirm
whether it is a fax before beginning reception.
Using G3-ID allows the machine to reject faxes from specific fax numbers or unknown fax
numbers. You can register up to 50 fax numbers as rejected fax numbers.

Rejecting faxes from specific fax numbers:
The machine rejects faxes when the G3-ID sent from the sender’s machine is included in

Rejecting faxes from unknown fax numbers:
The machine rejects faxes when the G3-ID is not sent from the sender’s machine.
G3-ID contains a phone number and other information that are registered in the sender’s
machine.
