Changing rings-to-answer

When the answer mode is set to automatic, the product’s rings-to-answer setting determines the number of times the phone rings before an incoming call is answered.

If the product is connected to a line receiving both fax and voice calls (a shared line) with an answering machine, you may need to adjust the rings-to-answer. The number of rings-to-answer for the product must be greater than the rings-to-answer on the answering machine. This allows the answering machine to answer the incoming call and record a message if it is a voice call. When the answering machine answers the call, the product listens to the call and automatically answers it if it detects fax tones.

Refer to the fax guide that came with your product to determine the default and recommended rings-to-answer settings for your country or region.

To set the number of rings-to-answer

To set or change the number of rings-to-answer, use the following steps:

1On the control panel, press menu/enter.

2Use the < and > buttons to select Fax Setup and press menu/enter.

3Use the < and > buttons to select Fax Recv. Setup and press menu/enter.

4Use the < and > buttons to select Rings To Answer and press menu/enter.

5Use the alphanumeric keypad to enter the number of rings-to-answer and press menu/enter.

Note	If you have an answering machine or computer voicemail connected to this line for the other phone
	number (on the single ring pattern), make sure the product’s rings-to-answer is set to a lower number
	than the rings-to-answer on the answering machine or voicemail. If it is not, the product will be unable
	to receive fax calls.
