the scanner’s white pressure bar and the glass under the bar using isopropyl

Handling Incoming Calls

The fax machine knows the incoming call is not a fax so it is signaling you to
answer the telephone call. Pick up the fax machine handset or answer from an
extension phone and press your fax machine’s Telephone Answer Code (default
setting is #51). (See For FAX/TEL Mode Only, page 5-6.)
Transferring a Call to the Fax Machine
If you have answered the fax machine handset, press Start , and hang up
immediately.
If you answered at an extension phone, press your three-digit Fax Receive Code
(the factory setting is
51). When your fax machine answers, hang up.
Fax Machine “Hears” Voice as CNG Tone
If your fax machine is set to Easy Receive ON, and it answers voice calls by
trying to receive a fax, try turning Easy Receive to OFF.
