Receiving faxes

Different ways to get the job done

Reception modes

Your fax machine has four different reception modes — Tel Ready, Fax Ready, Tel/Fax Ready and Ans/Fax Ready — each of which we’ll explain in a moment. We’ll also give you an idea of which one you should use, depending upon your setup.

Answering calls manually — for all reception modes

In any reception mode, you always can answer calls manually. Just pick your machine’s handset.

If you hear someone speaking to you, go ahead and have a normal phone call.

If you hear fax tones (“beep — beep — beep — beep”), press START and hang up the handset. Your fax machine will begin receiving a fax.

Note: Don’t try to answer a call by pressing MONITOR/CALL. The monitor function is only for on-hook dialing. Your fax machine does not have a speakerphone.

Getting started

Tel Ready mode

Use it if:	• You intend to use the same line for both fax and phone calls
	. . . and . . .
	• You are 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 as described in “Answering calls manually — for all reception modes” (left column).

To select Tel Ready:

Press RECEIVE repeatedly until the TEL light comes on.

Fax Ready mode

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

In this mode: Your fax machine answers each incoming call after a certain num- ber of rings (see page 2.4) and attempts fax reception.

To select Fax Ready:

Press RECEIVE repeatedly until neither TEL, TEL/FAX nor ANS/FAX light is glowing.
