How Can I Send the Call to My Fax Machine‘s
When you answer a call that is a fax transmission, you must activate your fax machine to go into
fax receiving tones (chirping) before you hang up. If you have answered the fax handset, press the
START
key and hang up immediately. If you are on another phone, there is no START key so you
must
press
your
three-digit
Remote
Activation
Code.
The
factory
default
setting
is
*51.
Press
the
code
quickly and wait
to hear your fax machine chirp through the handset. It takes 3 seconds
for the fax to respond. You can press the code as many times as needed.
What is the Difference Between Automatic and Manual Transmission?
Automatic transmission is the easiest way to send a fax.
Simply place the document(s) face
down in the feeder, dial the phone number and press the START key immediately.
Do not pick
up the handset or press the HOOK key.
Calling tones will go over the phone line.
Manual transmission
occurs
when you start with a dial tone before you dial,
by lifting the
handset or pressing the HOOK key. You will hear the rings on the phone line. You must wait to
hear the receiving machine answer with a chirp before you press the START key. If you wait too
long
to
press
START
without
a
document
in
the
feeder,
your
fax
machine
will
go
into
receiving
mode instead of sending and you will see “receiving” on the .screen.
What is the Difference Between Automatic and Manual Dialing?
Automatic dialing
is when you dial by pressing the keys where you stored a number. Your fax
machine
stores
two
kinds
of
automatic
dialing
numbers:
One-Touch
and
Speed-Dial.
Reserve
your
most
frequently
dialed
numbers
(and
Groups)
for
your
One-Touch
keys;
all
you
have
to
do
is
press
the
One-Touch
key
followed
hy
the
START
key
(2
key
strokes).
To
use
a
Speed-Dial
number, press the
Speed-Dial key and the two-digit code you used to store the number, followed
by
the
START
key
(4
key
strokes).
You
can
dial
automatically
using
One-Touch
and
Speed-Dial
numbers for both automatic and manual transmissions.
Manual dialing
is simply pressing all the digits of the phone number. You can dial manually for
both automatic and manual transmissions.
What Should I Do If My Fax Machine Does Not Have a Dial Tone?
Thei-e
are
three
jacks
in
the
back
of
the
fax
machine:
LINE,
EXT and PC I/F. Double-check that
the telephone line cord is plugged into the LINE jack and not into EXT or PC I/F. (Plugging the
telephone line cord into the EXT or PC I/F jack is the most common cause of no dial tone.)
If the telephone line cord is plugged into the LINE jack of the fax machine and you do not get a
dial tone, test the phone line. Go to another phone and check for a dial tone; then bring that
working telephone and cord and plug them into the wall jack for your fax machine. If you do not
get
a
dial
tone
with
the
working
phone,
the
problem
is
the
phone
line.
Call
the
Telephone
Company and report the problem.
