In Manual mode, if you connect a telephone to your machine, you can receive voice calls as well as manually
activate reception of faxes. You can activate reception from the machine or from the telephone connected to the
machine (this is called Remote receiving).
• For this mode, you need to connect a telephone to your machine. (
→ Set-up Guide)
• Make sure there are no documents in the ADF.
• Make sure the REMOTE RX setting is enabled. (
→ p. 10-7)
• If your telephone line uses rotary pulse and the telephone connected to the machine can not be switched
to tone dialling, you can not activate Remote receiving.
1 Make sure Manual is displayed in the LCD.

• To set Manual
→ p. 5-2.
2 Make sure you have connected a telephone to the machine.
3 When you hear the telephone ring, pick up the handset.
4 ❚ If you hear a person’s voice:
Start your conversation. If the caller wants to send a fax after talking to you, ask them to press start on their fax
machine.
When you hear a slow beep, press Start on the machine to begin receiving the fax. Hang up the handset.
❚ If you hear a slow beep tone or silence:
Someone is trying to send you a fax.
If the telephone is close to your machine, press Start on the machine to begin receiving the fax.
Hang up the handset.
• If no paper is loaded in the cassette, the LCD displays SUPPLY REC. PAPER. When paper is loaded,
the machine automatically resumes printing.
• If the telephone is located away from your machine, dial 25 (the remote receiving ID) on your
telephone and hang up. When your telephone line uses rotary pulse, switch to tone dialling on your
telephone before dialling 25 (the remote receiving ID).
• You can change the number for the remote receiving ID, with a combination of two characters
using 0 to 9, T T and #, or disable remote receiving. (
→ p. 10-7)
• If you have an answering machine connected to your machine that can carry out remote-control
operations (controlling your answering machine from a remote telephone), the security code for this
function may be the same as the remote receiving ID. If so, make sure you change the machine’s
remote receiving ID to make it distinct from the answering machine’s security code. (
→ p. 10-7)
• The machine will beep and HANG UP PHONE will be displayed if the handset is not hung up properly.
Make sure the handset is placed properly in its cradle. If you do not want the machine to beep, disable
the OFFHOOK ALARM setting. (
