7 Faxing

There are two ways you can send or receive a fax:

Automatic

Manual

You might select the Automatic mode when you know the receiving fax machine and your fax machine are connected to a dedicated phone line (that is, the phone line is used only for faxing). If the phone line is shared between a telephone and a fax machine, you might want to select the Manual mode.
