Telephone Billing
If you are on a PBX, you can have the fax machine send a code to the
PBX that identifies the sender for billing purposes each time a fax is
sent. Telephone billing is possible in two ways: using Department
Control and by direct billing code entry.
Using Department Control
If you are using the Department Control function, you can use
Department Codes for telephone billing. In this case, the fax machine
will automatically send the Department Code that a department
member enters to access the fax machine to the PBX. The PBX can
then use the Department Code to bill the call to that department.
To use Department Control for telephone billing, program a
Department Code for each group that will use the fax machine (see
Department Control in this chapter), and then have your dealer
activate Department Control. After this, set Option Setting 26
(Telephone Billing Code) to ON as explained in Chapter 6, Optional
Settings.
Direct billing code entry
If you don’t want to use Department Control for telephone billing, you
can have users enter an assigned billing code (any number up 9 digits
long) each time they use the fax machine. The fax machine will
automatically send this code to the PBX for billing purposes. To use
this function, have your dealer activate the function and then set
Option Setting 26 (Telephone Billing Code) to ON as explained in
Chapter 6, Optional Settings.
Note: The billing code should be assigned by your PBX administrator.
Billing codes are not programmed into the fax machine.
Users should enter their billing code as follows when performing an
operation on the fax machine. The code need only be entered when
calling outside of the PBX.
