Basic Receiving Operations

Select Answer Mode

MANUAL—You must answer all calls yourself. If you hear fax tones, press Start to begin receiving the fax, then hang up. You can use this mode with Distinctive Ringing. (See Distinctive Ring, page 8-1.)

FAX ONLY—The FAX/MFC automatically answers every call as a fax call. You cannot receive a voice call, but you can dial out and make a voice call.

FAX/TEL—The FAX/MFC automatically answers every call. If the call is a fax, it prints the fax. If the call is not a fax, it signals you with a double ring (ring-ring), different from the phone company ringing, to alert you to pick up the call. If you select this setting, you’ll need to set the Ring Delay and F/T Ring Time features (on the following pages). If you have extension phones on the same line as the FAX/MFC, set Ring Delay to 4. (See For FAX/TEL Mode Only, page 5-6.)

MSG CTR—The FAX/MFC provides you with a built-in digital Message Center for fax and voice. When you set the machine to answer calls, it will record up to 15 minutes of messages. For more information about Message Center (MSG CTR) operation, please see Chapter 9.
