answering machine is connected to the FAX and that it is turned on with an

memory available.

calls.
•
For the FAX to switch automatically, the receive mode must be set to Fax/
Tel Mode, ANS.MACHINE MODE, or NET SWITCH* ( Chapter 8). If you
have set ANS.MACHINE MODE, confirm that an answering machine is
connected to the FAX and that it is turned on with an outgoing message
properly recorded (

local authorised Canon dealer or the Canon help line.
* NET SWITCH is available for certain countries only.
