Advanced Receiving Operations
Operation from Extension Telephone
If you answer a fax call on an extension phone or on an external phone in the
EXT. jack, you can make your MFC take over by using the Fax Receive Code.
When you press the Fax Receive Code 5 1, the MFC starts to receive a fax.
(See
Easy Receive , page 6-3.)
If you answer a call at an extension or external phone, and no one is on the line,
assume you’re receiving a fax. At an extension phone, press 5 1, wait for fax
receiving tones (chirps), then hang up. At an external phone, press 5 1 and
wait for the phone to be disconnected (the LCD shows
RECEIVING ) before
you hang up. (Your caller will have to press Black Fax Start to send the fax.)
Changing the Fax Receive Code
The preset Fax Receive Code ( 5 1) might not work with some telephone
systems.
1 Press Menu/Set, 2, 1, 3.
2 Press to select ON (or OFF ),
and then press Menu/Set.
3 If you want to, enter a new Fax Receive
Code, and then press Menu/Set.
4 Press Stop/Exit.
Printing a Fax in Memory
If you set Fax Storage to ON for remote retrieval, you can still print a fax from
the memory when you are at your MFC. (See Setting Fax Storage , page 9-2.)
1 Press Menu/Set, 2, 5, 4.
2 Press Black Fax Start.
3 After printing is finished, press Stop/Exit.
Note
If you are always disconnected when accessing your external TAD remotely,
try changing the Fax Receive Code from 5 1 to # # #.
