Message Center
Message Center Mode
Message Center mode allows you to store incoming fax and voice messages in a
flexible memory. The memory stores 30 minutes of voice messages, or up to 20 pages
of fax memory. Any voice or fax message can be retrieved remotely. Memory is
shared between fax and voice messages, which are stored on a “first-come, first-
served” basis.
You must record an outgoing message in order to use the Message Center mode.
