Receiving Faxes

Reception Mode

Your fax machine has four different reception modes, each of which we’ll explain in a moment ---- along with giving you an idea of which one you should use,

depending upon your set-up.

Answering calls manually ---- for all reception modes

In any reception mode, you can always answer calls manually. Just pick up the fax handset.

If you hear someone speaking to you …

… go ahead and have a normal phone call.

If you hear distinctive fax tones … … press start and hang up the handset.

Your fax machine will begin receiving fax.

Note: Do not attempt to answer a call by pressing monitor/call. The monitor function is only on-hook dialing. Your fax machine does not have a speaker phone.

Tel Ready Mode

Use it if: • You intend to use the same line for both fax and phone calls and

•You’re using, on that line, at least one other phone which is not connected to your fax machine.

In this mode: Your fax machine never answers calls automatically; you must answer each call manually using the fax’s telephone handset or another telephone in your home or office.

To select Tel Ready:

1.If you have an M880 and the red answer lamp is lit, press answer to turn off answering machine mode.

2.If there isn’t a document in the feeder, skip to step 3.

If there is a document in the feeder, press stop so it will fed out.

3. Press receive until the following display is shown.

Fax Ready Mode

Use it if:	You have your fax machine installed on a “dedicated” line (one it
	doesn’t share with either an answering machine or second phone).

In this mode: Your fax machine answers each incoming call after a certain number of rings (see page 2.2) and attempts fax reception.

To select Fax Ready mode:

2.If there isn’t a document in the feeder, skip to step 3.
