Advanced receiving operations

Operation from extension telephones

If you answer a fax call on an extension telephone, or an external telephone in the EXT. jack of the machine, you can make the fax machine take the call by using the Fax Receive Code. When you press the Fax Receive Code 5 1, the fax machine starts to receive a fax. (See Easy Receive on page 5-3.)

If the fax machine answers a voice call and pseudo/double-rings for you to take over, use the Telephone Answer Code # 5 1 to take the call at an extension phone. (See Setting the F/T Ring Time (FAX/TEL mode only) on page 5-3.)

If you answer a call and no one is on the line, you should assume that you’re receiving a manual fax.

■At an extension phone (on a separate telephone wall jack), press 5 1, wait for fax-receiving tones (chirps), and then hang up.

■At an external phone (connected to the fax machine’s EXT jack), press 5 1 and wait for the phone to be disconnected before you hang up (the LCD shows RECEIVE).

Your caller will have to press the Start key to send the fax.

For FAX/TEL mode only

When the fax machine is in FAX/TEL mode, it will use the F/T Ring Time (pseudo/double-ringing) to alert you to pick up a voice call. If you’re at an extension or external phone, you’ll need to lift the handset during the F/T Ring Time and then press # 5 1 between the double rings. If no one is on the line, or if someone wants to send you a fax, send the call back to the fax machine by pressing

5 1.

Using a cordless external handset

If your cordless telephone is connected to the EXT. jack of the fax machine and you typically carry the cordless handset elsewhere, it is easier to answer calls during the Ring Delay. If you let the fax machine answer first, you will have to answer using the cordless and then go to the fax machine so you can press Hook to transfer the call to the cordless handset.
