Receiving Faxes

Using the unit with an answering machine

(KX-FP181 only)!

Setting up the fax machine and an answering machine

1 Connect the answering machine.

		Remove the stopper with
		your finger and connect
		the cord to the EXT jack.
		Stopper
	Extension telephone adaptor
	(not included)	Answering machine
		(not included)
	Telephone line cord
	(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.
3	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.”
4	Activate the answering machine.
5	Set the receive mode of the fax machine to the TEL mode (p. 40) or FAX ONLY mode
5	(p. 41).

● If you set to the FAX ONLY mode, set the ring count in the FAX ONLY mode to more than 5 (feature #06 on page 65). Using the 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 66.

Note:

●We recommend you keep the greeting message around to 10 seconds long. If the greeting message is too long, some incoming fax calls may not be answered by the fax machine.

●Every time the fax machine receives a document, a silent pause or fax tone may be recorded on the answering machine.
