I have a customer who has a Ricoh 1022 with Fax Option and when they fax 10-15 pages, the memory gets close to 0%. I have added a HDD and additional memory and nothing helps. Does anyone know if this is normal for faxing on this machine. I tried a much older Mita standalone fax that has far less memory and it had no problem faxing a 50 page document with high page coverage %.

The number of pages in SAF memory is really a "your mileage may vary" 2 meg (standard) should be about 120 pages of 8 1/2 x 11" 5% fill documents.
If the pages are legal size or if they have alot of print or especially is they have pictures, then the memory can be used up alot faster. IOW 10 legal size docs with some have a dark background (like on green paper for instance) will fill up the SAF PDQ.
What I do is grab a collection of docs from my office and run them thru our office fax (a 3215 w/no additional SAF)then I note the % used.
I take those same docs to the customer and compare the reading there. Most often the problem is in the type of docs they are sending.
You can get a user parameter list and see the options installed. Or maybe its the system parameter list.
