Samsung SCX-4521FG Receiving Manually Using an Extension Telephone, Receiving Faxes in the Memory

Receiving Manually Using an Extension Telephone

This features works best when you are using an extension telephone connected to the EXT. jack on the back of your machine. You can receive a fax from someone you are talking to on the extension telephone without going to the fax machine.

When you receive a call on the extension phone and hear fax tones, press the keys 9 on the extension telephone. The machine receives the document.

Press the buttons slowly in sequence. If you still hear the fax tone from the remote machine, try pressing 9 once again.

9 is the remote receive code preset at the factory. The first and the last asterisks are fixed, but you can change the middle number to whatever you wish. For details about changing the code, see “Receive Code” on page 7.2

Receiving Faxes Using the DRPD Mode

“Distinctive Ring” is a telephone company service which enables a user to use a single telephone line to answer several different telephone numbers. The particular number someone uses to call you is identified by different ringing patterns, which consist of various combinations of long and short ringing sounds. This feature is often used by answering services who answer telephones for many different clients and need to know which number someone is calling in on to properly answer the phone.

Using the Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection feature, your fax machine can “learn” the ring pattern you designate to be answered by the fax machine. Unless you change it, this ringing pattern will continue to be recognized and answered as a fax call, and all other ringing patterns will be forwarded to the extension telephone or answering machine plugged into the EXT. jack. You can easily suspend or change Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection at any time.

Before using the Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection option, Distinctive Ring service must be installed on your telephone line by the telephone company. To set up Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection, you will need another telephone line at your location, or someone available to dial your fax number from outside.

To set up the DRPD mode:

1Press Menu until “Fax Setup” appears on the top line of the display.

2Press the scroll button ( or ) until you see “Receive Mode” on the bottom line and press Enter.

3Press the scroll button ( or ) until you see “DRPD Mode” on the bottom line and press Enter.

4When “Set” displays on the bottom line, press Enter.

“Waiting Ring” appears on the display.

5Call your fax number from another telephone. It is not necessary to place the call from a fax machine.

6When your machine begins to ring, do not answer the call. The machine requires several rings to learn the pattern.

When the machine completes learning, the LCD displays “End DRPD Setup”.

If the DRPD setup fails, “DRPD Ring Error” appears. Press Enter when “DRPD Mode” displays and retry from step 3.

7To return to Standby mode, press Stop/Clear.

When the DRPD feature is set up, the DRPD option is available in the Receive Mode menu. To receive faxes in the DRPD mode, you need to set the menu to DRPD; see “DRPD Mode” on page 7.2.

NOTES:

•DRPD must be set up again if you re-assign your fax number, or connect the machine to another telephone line.

•After DRPD has been set up, call your fax number again to verify that the machine answers with a fax tone. Then have a call placed to a different number assigned to that same line to be sure the call is forwarded to the extension telephone or answering machine plugged into the EXT. jack.

Receiving Faxes in the Memory

Since your machine is a multi-tasking device, it can receive faxes while you are making copies or printing. If you receive a fax while you are copying or printing, your machine stores incoming faxes in memory. Then, as soon as you finish copying or printing, the machine automatically prints the fax.
