Note:

LBy default, the unit reduces the size of the received document to 92% when printing (See feature #36 on page 69 for details).

Receiving a voice message and fax document in one call

The caller can leave a voice message and send a fax document during the same call. Inform the caller of the following procedure beforehand.

1.The caller calls your unit.

LThe answering machine will answer the call.

2.The caller can leave a message after the greeting message.

3.The caller presses {*}{9}.

LThe unit will activate the fax function.

4.The caller presses the start button to send a fax.

Ring setting in TAM/FAX mode

You can change the number of rings before the unit answers calls. You can choose from “2” (default), “3”, “4”, “5”, “6”, “7”, “8”, “9”, “TOLL SAVER” and “RINGER OFF”. This setting can be changed by feature #06 on page 67.

“TOLL SAVER”: The unit answers after 2 rings when new messages have been recorded, and after 4 rings when there are no new messages. If you call your unit from outside to listen to new messages (page 64), you will know that there are no new messages when the unit rings for the 3rd time. You can then hang up without being charged for the call.

Note:

LTo turn the ringer OFF for the handset, see page 24.
