Connect one end of the cable to the telephone or answering machine, and
connect the other end to the

EXT.

port on the back of the WorkForce 310

Series.

If your answering machine is set to pick up on the fourth ring, you should set the
WorkForce 310 Series to pick up on the fifth ring or later:

1. Press the K

Fax

button, then press x

Menu

.

2. Press u or d to select

Fax Setting

, then press

OK

.

3. Press u or d to select

Communication

, then press

OK

.

4. Press u or d to select

Rings to Answer

, then press

.

5. Press u or d or use the numeric keypad to select the number of rings, then

press

OK

. Select more than the number of rings needed for the answering

machine to pick up.

6. Press x

In Auto Answer mode, if the incoming call is a fax and you pick up the phone or
the answering machine answers, the WorkForce 310 Series automatically begins
receiving the transmission. If the other party is a caller, the phone can be used as
normal or a message can be left on the answering machine.

Note:
A phone or answering machine must be connected to the EXT. port for the WorkForce
310 Series to detect an incoming fax call when a phone is picked up. If a fax call comes
in, and you pick up the phone without having a phone or answering machine connected
to the EXT. port, the call will be disconnected when you hang up and the WorkForce
310 Series will not receive the fax.
