Muratec F-65 operating instructions Ans/Fax Ready mode, When the paper or ink film runs out

Ans/Fax Ready mode

Use it if: You are using an answering machine connected directly to your fax machine.

In this mode: An answering machine externally connected to your fax machine answers each incoming call. If a voice call comes in, the answering machine will begin to record the incoming message. If the fax tone starts, your fax machine will detect it and receive the fax message automatically.

To select Ans/Fax Ready:

Press RECEIVE repeatedly until ANS/FAX light comes on.

Using an answering machine with your fax machine

If you are connecting an answering machine to your fax machine:

1 Follow the steps on page 1.11 to connect an answering machine to your fax machine.

2 On your fax machine, press RECEIVE until the ANS/FAX light comes on.

3 Set your answering machine to answer calls after no more than two rings. (Consult the answering machine’s instructions if necessary).

4 Finally, use your answering machine to create a new outgoing message. Here’s a suggested message:

Hello! You’ve reached [your name or telephone number]. To leave a voice mes- sage, please wait for the beep. To send a fax, press Start on your fax machine. Thanks for calling!

Important: Your answering machine’s outgoing message must be no longer than 10 seconds.

Getting started

Detection of “silent” fax machines

Some older fax machines don’t send fax tones when transmitting.

However, your fax machine can accommodate these “silent” machines without dis- rupting your answering machine operation. For more information, call your authorized Muratec dealer.

When the paper or ink film runs out

Getting the word from your machine

When your fax machine runs out of paper or ink film, it beeps, the ALARM light glows and the LCD displays Check Rx Paper or Check Ink Film message.

Receiving faxes when out of paper or ink film

If your machine runs out of paper or ink film, it stores up to 50 separate fax recep- tions in memory. This is called out-of-paper reception. When you replenish the paper or ink film supply, the fax machine will print the stored messages automati- cally!

Note: How many pages (as opposed to receptions) your fax machine can store for out-of-paper reception will vary. It depends on your machine’s memory capacity and the types of documents being sent to your machine. It also depends on the resolution settings the remote fax uses when sending faxes to your machine.

Note: During a power failure, all documents stored in memory will be backed-up up to 72 hours*.

*The machine’s back-up battery requires about 1 day to reach full charge after to the fax machine is restored.
