Schedule a fax to send later

You can schedule a black-and-white fax to be sent within the next 24 hours. This enables
you to send a black-and-white fax late in the evening, when phone lines are not as busy
or phone rates are lower, for example. The device automatically sends your fax at the
specified time.
You can only schedule one fax to be sent at a time. You can continue to send faxes
normally, however, while a fax is scheduled.

NOTE: You can only send faxes in black and white due to memory limitations.
