Receiving Faxes

Your machine automatically receives faxes in colour from fax machines with colour capability. When receiving a fax, the machine detects if the incoming fax is a colour or black & white transaction and prints the fax accordingly.

Different Ways to Receive a Fax

The machine provides you with several modes for receiving faxes. Once you have decided which mode is suitable for your needs, set the mode as described in the Quick Start Guide. You can change the mode when the machine is in standby mode. To determine which mode best suits your requirements, refer to the table below:
