Easy Receive

When you use this feature you do not have to
press Black Start or Color Start or the Fax
Receive Code 51 when you answer a fax
call. Selecting On allows the machine to
receive fax calls automatically, even if you lift
the handset of an extension or external
phone. When you see Receiving on the
LCD or when you hear ‘chirps’ through the
handset of an extension phone connected to
another telephone wall jack, just replace the
handset and your machine will do the rest.
Note
■If this feature is set to On, but your
machine does not connect a fax call when
you lift an extension or external phone
handset, press the Fax Receive Code
51.
■If you send faxes from a computer on the
same phone line and the machine
intercepts them, set Easy Receive to Off.
■Selecting Off means you’ll have to
activate the machine yourself by lifting the
handset of an external or extension
phone, and then press Black Start or
Color Start on the machine.

by pressing 51 if you are not at your
