tone on the line, the machine automatically switches to Fax mode to

receive the fax.

To use the Ans/Fax mode, attach an answering machine to the

EXT socket on the back of your machine.

you can use secure receiving mode. In this mode, all of the

received faxes are stored in memory. For further details, see

"Receiving in secure receiving mode" on page 5.

Receiving automatically in Fax mode

Your machine is preset Fax mode at the factory. When you receive a fax,

the machine answers the call on a specified number of rings and

automatically receives the fax.

Receiving manually in Tel mode

You can receive a fax call by pressing On Hook Dial and then pressing

Black Start or Color Start when you hear a fax tone from the remote

machine.
The machine begins receiving a fax and returns to ready mode when the

reception is completed.

Receiving faxes manually using an extension

telephone

This feature works best when you are using an extension telephone

connected to the EXT socket on the back of your machine. You can receive

a fax from someone you are talking to on the extension telephone, without

going to the fax machine.
When you receive a call on the extension phone and hear fax tones, press

the keys *9* on the extension phone. The machine receives the fax.
Press the buttons slowly in sequence. If you still hear the fax tone from the

remote machine, try pressing *9* once again.

asterisks are fixed, but you can change the middle number to whatever you

wish. For details about changing the code, see "Changing the fax setup

options" on page 1

Receiving automatically in Answering Machine/Fax

mode

To use this mode, you must attach an answering machine to the EXT socket

on the back of your machine (See "Rear view" on page 5).
If the caller leaves a message, the answering machine stores the message

as it would normally. If your machine detects a fax tone on the line, it

automatically starts to receive the fax.

If you have set your machine to this mode and your answering

machine is switched off, or no answering machine is connected to

EXT socket, your machine automatically goes into Fax mode after

a predefined number of rings.

If your answering machine has a user-selectable ring counter, set the

machine to answer incoming calls within 1 ring.

If you are in Tel mode when the answering machine is connected to

your machine, you must switch off the answering machine.

Otherwise, the outgoing message from the answering machine will

interrupt your phone conversation.

Receiving faxes using DRPD mode

Distinctive Ring is a telephone company service which enables an user to

use a single telephone line to answer several different telephone numbers.

The particular number someone uses to call you is identified by different

ringing patterns, which consist of various combinations of long and short

ringing sounds. This feature is often used by answering services who

answer telephones for many different clients and need to know which

number someone is calling in on to properly answer the phone.
Using the Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection (DRPD) feature, your fax

machine can learn the ring pattern you designate to be answered. Unless

you change it, this ringing pattern will continue to be recognized and
