Registering Sender Information

Content Id: 8200155000


A fax you receive may have information, such as the sender's name or the company name, the sender's phone or fax number, and the date and time of the transmission, printed in small type at the top of each page. Such sender information is called Transmit Terminal Identification, or TTI.

You can register your TTI in this machine, so that the recipient of your fax will know who sent it, and when it was sent.

Below is an example of how your sender information would be printed on a fax sent from the machine:

(A) Date and time of transmission

(B) Your fax/telephone number

You can select FAX or TEL to be printed before the number.

(C) Your name

(D) Prints the name of the destination when sending from coded speed dialing.

(E) Page number

Caution

When sending black & white faxes, you can set the sender information to print inside or outside the image area.
For color sending, the sender information is printed inside the print area and the recipient's name is not printed.
You can enter the sender information from the Operation Panel. See Registering Your Fax/Telephone Number and Name (Sender Information).
Three date display formats are available: YYYY/MM/DD, MM/DD/YYYY, and DD/MM/YYYY. For details on the date format settings.
