Receiving Faxes
Using the unit with an answering machine!
Setting up the fax machine and an answering machine
1 Connect the answering machine.

| (not included) | |
|
| |
2 Set the number of rings on the answering machine to less than 4. | ||
| ● This will allow the answering machine to answer the call first. | |
3 | Record a greeting message on the answering machine. | |
Example: “This is (your name, business and/or telephone number). We are unable to | ||
| answer the phone right now. To send a fax, start transmission. To leave a | |
| message, please speak after the beep. Thank you.” | |
| ● We recommend you record a message up to 10 seconds long, and do not pause for more | |
| than 4 seconds during the message. Otherwise, both machines will not function correctly. |
4 | Activate the answering machine. |
5 | Set the fax machine to the desired receiving mode (p. 42, 43). |
● If you set to FAX ONLY mode, change the ring setting in FAX ONLY mode to more than 4 (feature #06 on page 58). Using FAX ONLY mode will allow you to receive faxes if the answering machine is full.
6 Check the remote access code of the answering machine and program the same code into the remote operation ID of the fax machine. See feature #12 on page 59.
