Receiving Faxes

How the fax machine and answering machine work

Receiving voice calls

The answering machine will record voice messages automatically.

Receiving fax calls

The fax machine will receive documents automatically when the machine detects a calling tone.

Receiving a voice message and fax document in one call

The answering machine will record the voice message first. The fax machine will then be activated by the caller’s request and will receive the document.

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 fax machine.

●The answering machine will answer the call.

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

3.The caller presses 9 (pre-selected fax activation code).

●The fax machine will activate the fax function.

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

Note:

●The fax activation code can be changed in feature #41 (p. 68).

●If the wrong fax activation code is entered, the caller must wait at least 5 seconds to reenter the correct code.

To use with a computer!

We recommend that you always connect the fax machine directly to the wall jack.
