The device can send faxes

If you are not using a distinctive ring service, check to make sure that the Distinctive Ring feature

but cannot receive faxes

on the device is set to All Rings.

 

 

 

If Auto Answer is set to Off, or you have a voice mail service at the same phone number you use

 

for fax calls, you can only receive faxes manually.

sure that the software that came with your modem is not set to receive faxes automatically.

Disconnect the answering machine and then try receiving a fax.

Record a message that is approximately 10 seconds in duration. Speak slowly and at a low volume when recording your message. Leave at least 5 seconds of silence at the end of the voice message.

 

Other equipment that uses the same phone line might be causing the test to fail. You can

 

disconnect all the other devices and run the test again. If the Dial Tone Detection Test passes,

 

then one or more of the other equipment is causing problems. Try adding them back one at

 

a time and rerunning the test each time until you identify which piece of equipment is causing the

 

problem.
