Bit Switches SM 61 B786 B786 Fax Option Determines whether the e-mail addresses of the destinations that receive transmissions broadcasted using SMTP protocol are recorded in the Journal. For example: 1st destination + Total number of destinations: 9 in the Journal indicates a broadcast to 9 destinations. 0: Not recorded 1: Recorded 1 I-Fax Automatic Re-dial Setting 0: OFF 1: ON Determines whether the I-fax automatically redials when an error occurs. 2-7 Not Used I-fax Switch 06 - Not used (do not change the settings) [SP No. 1-102-007] I-fax Switch 07 - Not used (do not change the settings) [SP No. 1-102-008] I-fax Switch 08 [SP No. 1-102-009] No FUNCTION COMMENTS Memory Threshold for POP Mail Reception 0-7 This setting determines the amount of SAF (Store and Forward) memory. (SAF stores fax messages to send later for transmission to more than one location, and also holds incoming messages if they cannot be printed.) When the amount of SAF memory available falls below this setting, mail can no longer be received; received mail is then stored on the mail server. 00-FF (0 to 1024 KB: HEX) ƒ The hexadecimal number you enter is multiplied by 4 KB to determine the amount of memory.

For example, if this setting is set to 10, and A4 is the selected paper size: If the received document is 10 mm or less longer than A4, then the 10 mm are cut and only 1 page prints. If the received document is 10 mm longer than A4, then the document is split into 2 pages. Printer Switch 04 SP No. 1-103-005 No FUNCTION COMMENTS Maximum reducible length when length reduction is enabled with switch 03-0 above. = + (N x 5mm) “N” is the decimal value of the binary setting of bits 0 to 4.

(1,1) - The machine will disconnect the line without sending a fax message, if the other end does not identify itself with an RTI or CSI. (0,0) - Nothing is checked; transmission will always go ahead. ƒ This function does not work when dialing is done from the external telephone. 4-5 Not used Do not change the setting. 6-7 Maximum printable page length available Bit 7: 0 Bit 6: 0 = No limit Bit 7: 0 Bit 6: 1 = B4 (364 mm) Bit 7: 1 Bit 6: 0 = A4 (297 mm) Bit 7: 1 Bit 6: 1 = Not used The setting determined by these bits is informed to the transmitting terminal in the pre-message protocol exchange (in the DIS/NSF frames). Communication Switch 02 [SP No. 1-104-003] No FUNCTION COMMENTS If there are more consecutive error lines in the received page than the threshold, the machine will send a negative response.

Bit Switches B786 70 SM No FUNCTION COMMENTS 0 Point of resumption of memory transmission upon redialing 0: From the error page 1: From page 1 0: The transmission begins from the page where transmission failed the previous time. 1: Transmission begins from the first page, using normal memory transmission. 1-7 Not used Do not change the settings. Communication Switch 0B - Not used (do not change the settings) Communication Switch 0C - Not used (do not change the settings) Communication Switch 0D [SP No. 1-104-014] No FUNCTION COMMENTS 0-7 The available memory threshold, below which ringing detection (and therefore reception into memory) is disabled 00 to FF (Hex), unit = 4 kbytes (e.g., 06(H) = 24 kbytes) One page is about 24 kbytes. The machine refers to this setting before each fax reception. If the amount of remaining memory is below this threshold, the machine cannot receive any fax messages. If this setting is kept at 0, the machine will detect ringing signals and go into receive mode even if there is no memory available. This will result in communication failure. Communication Switch 0E [SP No. 1-104-015] No FUNCTION COMMENTS 0-7 Minimum interval between automatic dialing attempts 06 to FF (Hex), unit = 2 s (e.g., 06(H) = 12 s) This value is the minimum time that the machine waits before it dials the next destination.
