How the Fax Operates with Default Settings

There are many minor features that you can change to customize the operation of the fax. Some of these features are listed in the table below. The description in the third column is the default setting. In other words, this is how the fax will operate unless you change the referenced setting.

If your fax is not operating as described, this means the default may have already been changed. In such a case you may want to go to the referenced page to restore the default setting.
