Operation from extension telephones
If you answer a fax call on an extension telephone, or an external
telephone in the EXT. jack, you can make your MFC take the call by
using the Fax Receive Code. When you press the Fax Receive Code
51 , the MFC starts to receive a fax.
(See Easy Receive on page 5-4.)
If the MFC answers a voice call and pseudo/double-rings for you to
take over, use the Telephone Answer Code
#51 to take the call at an
extension phone. (See Setting the F/T Ring Time (Fax/Tel mode
only) on page 5-3.)
If you answer a call and no one is on the line, you should assume that
you’re receiving a manual fax.
■
At an extension phone (on a separate telephone wall jack),
press
51 , wait for fax-receiving tones (chirps), and then
hang up.
■
At an external phone (connected to the MFC’s EXT jack), press
51 and wait for the phone to be disconnected before you hang
up (the LCD shows Receiving ).
Your caller will have to press Start to send the fax.
For Fax/Tel mode only
When the MFC is in Fax/Tel mode, it will use the F/T Ring Time
(pseudo/double-ringing) to alert you to pick up a voice call.
If you’re at the MFC, you can lift the handset to answer.
If you’re at an extension phone, you will need to lift the handset
during the F/T Ring Time and then press
#51 between the double
rings. If no one is on the line, or if someone wants to send you a fax,
send the call back to the MFC by pressing
51 .
