Outgoing Message (OGM)
Timing is important in recording this message. The message sets up the
ways to handle both manual and automatic fax reception.
1 Record 5 seconds of silence at the beginning of your message. (This
allows your FAX/MFC time to listen for the fax CNG tones of
automatic transmissions before they stop.)
2 Limit your speaking to 20 seconds.
3 End your 20-second message by giving your Fax Receive Code for
people sending manual faxes. For example:
“After the beep, leave a message or send a fax by pressing 5 1 and
Start.”
Connecting an External Telephone
Your FAX/MFC is equipped with a handset that you can use as a regular
phone. However, you can also connect a separate telephone (or telephone
answering device) directly to your FAX/MFC.
Connect the modular plug on the telephone’s line cord to the jack labeled
EXT. on the left side of the FAX/MFC.
Whenever this phone (or TAD) is in use, the screen displays “EXT. TEL IN
USE,” and, if the FAX/MFC handset is lifted, an alarm sounds. To
disconnect the call on the external phone and switch to the FAX/MFC, press
Hook or Speaker Phone .
