In this mode, your machine detects whether an incoming call is a fax or voice call. If it is a fax call, your machine receives the fax. If it is a voice call, your machine rings, then your answering machine activates. If you set the Remote Receive user function, the caller can send a fax at any time during or after the recorded message by using their keypad to enter the remote receive number you have programmed. This number activates fax reception. Add something like this to your answering machine message: “To send a fax now, press XX [the programmed number].”
See “Setting Basic Features, Dial and Incoming Call Parameter Settings, Incoming Call Parameters.”
Memory Reception Mode [MEM]
Received data is not printed but is stored into memory, even if there is fax paper on which to print.
Use the Print Operation function to print out data stored in memory during Memory Reception mode. You can set a password (USER PROGRAMMING under MEM. PASSWORD PRG) to disable the Memory Reception mode.
Forwarding Mode [FWD]
All fax communications are received into memory, then forwarded to another telephone number.
When set to this mode, the machine receives all fax communications into memory, and then automatically sends the messages to the telephone number programmed into the Call Forwarding function. This function displays only when a forwarding number has been programmed.
PC Fax Mode [PC]
!This mode is available only if an optional MFP Kit is installed.
Incoming faxes are stored on you computer’s hard disk instead of printing immediately.
This mode is only available when the machine is connected to a personal computer via optional multifunction product (MFP) software. When activated, the machine forwards the call directly to the computer. This lets you work with faxes on your computer using the software included with the MFP option.
