Advanced Receiving Operations
Operation from Extension Telephone or External
Telephone
If you answer a fax call on an extension phone or on an external phone in the
EXT. jack, you can make your FAX/MFC take over by using the Fax Receive
Code. When you press the Fax Receive Code
5 1 , the FAX/MFC starts to
receive a fax. (See Setting F/T Ring Time , page 5-3 and Easy Receive , page 5-3.)
If the FAX/MFC answers a voice call and double-rings for you to take over, use
the Telephone Answer Code
# 5 1 to take the call at an extension phone.
If you answer a call, and no one is on the line, assume you’re receiving a fax. At
the FAX/MFC phone, press
Start , then hang up. 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 screen displays
RECEIVE) before you hang up. (Your caller will have to press Start to send
the fax.)
For FAX/TEL Mode Only
When the FAX/MFC is in FAX/TEL mode, it will use the F/T Ring Time
(double ringing) to alert you to pick up a voice call. If you’re at the FAX/MFC,
you can lift the handset to answer.
If you’re at an extension phone, you’ll need to lift the handset during the F/T
Ring Time and press
# 5 1 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 FAX/MFC by
pressing
5 1 .
