If you connected a telephone to your product so you can use the same phone line for faxes and voice
calls, you can also set your product to receive faxes manually. This allows you to check for a fax tone
using the telephone and press a button on your product to receive the fax.
Make sure to load paper in your product and select your fax settings before receiving a fax.
Note:
If you run out of paper during fax printing, load more paper and press the button indicated on your
product's LCD screen to continue.
Note:
Do not turn the product off while it is receiving a fax. Otherwise, the fax transmission will be lost.
