Call request
You can send or receive a fax message and have a regular phone conversation on the
same call (although, not at the same time). This is called a call request. It doesn t matter
whether you re sending the fax or receiving it. You may fax first and then talk, or talk first
and then fax.
Important: For this feature to work, the remote fax machine must have a similar call-
request capability.
Your machine must also have an optional handset
attached.
