Send a fax without scanning the documents into memory.
Real Time Transmission allows you to send faxes without first scanning them into memory.
When Real Time Transmission is on, you place the document in the Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) or on the flat scanner glass and dial the fax number you want to send to. As soon as your fax line is free, your machine will dial the fax number and send the fax in real time.
You can make Real Time Transmission your default sending setting or temporarily activate it for the next fax you send.
