Basic Receiving Operations
Select Answer Mode
MANUAL—You must answer all calls yourself. If you hear fax tones, press
Start to begin receiving the fax, then hang up. You must use this mode with
Distinctive Ringing.
FAX ONLY—The fax machine automatically answers every call as a fax
call. You cannot receive a voice call, but you can dial out and make a voice
call.
FAX/TEL—The fax machine automatically answers every call. If the call is
a fax, it prints the fax. If the call is not a fax, it signals you with a double
ring (ring-ring), different from the phone company ringing, to alert you to
pick up the call. If you select this setting, you’ll need to set the Ring Delay
and F/T Ring Time features (on the following pages). If you have extension
phones on the same line as the fax machine, set the Ring Delay to 4.
MSG CTR—The fax machine provides you with a built-in digital Message
Center for fax and voice. When you set the machine to answer calls, it will
record up to 15 minutes of messages. For more information about Message
Center (MSG CTR) operation, please see Chapter 9.
