Sounds Your Fax Machine Makes

Signal Tones

Your machine emits a number of sounds to inform you of specific conditions.

One Short Beep

Key Select Tone: This is a short beep that is generated each time you press a key.

End of Session Tone: At the end of every successful fax session, your machine emits a beep to inform you that there were no errors or problems in the communication.

Three Short Beeps

Error Tones: If you press a wrong or inappro- priate key, your machine emits three short beeps.

Five Short Beeps

If your machine experiences a problem during communications, it emits five long beeps. Press the STOP key to turn the error tone off, then print a Message Confirmation Report to check the source of the problem (to do this, press the COPY key twice with no documents loaded).

Warbling Sounds

Voice Request Tone: During a fax session, either you or the person at the remote fax machine may initiate a voice request. When the person at the remote fax machine either initiates or answers your voice request, your machine emits a repetitive warbling sound.

Off-Hook Alarm Tone: If your machine is equipped with a handset, and if the handset is left off the hook, your machine emits an intermit- tent warbling sound. To turn off the sound, hang up the handset or press the STOP key.
