Auto Receive Mode [FAX]

Your machine is connected to a telephone line reserved only for fax communication.

This is the factory setting.

Your machine assumes all incoming calls are fax messages and automatically receives all incoming fax messages.

Manual Receive Mode [TEL]

You use the same line for both fax and telephone calls and the majority of your incoming calls are telephone calls.

To use this feature, you must have an external, optional handset or telephone connected to your fax machine.

When someone calls, your machine rings like a telephone. You can answer from an external telephone connected to your machine. If you pick up the hand set and hear fax machine tones, press the Start key to receive the fax. If you do not answer the phone and someone tries to send you a fax message, your machine will not accept it.

Telephone/Fax Mode [T/F]

Incoming calls are a mix of fax and telephone calls.

To use this feature, you must have an external, optional handset or telephone connected to your fax machine.

The display will show Lift Handset.

In this mode, your machine detects whether the incoming call is a fax or a voice call. When the call is from another fax machine, your machine switches to fax mode and receives the message. When the call is a voice call, your machine rings like a telephone. If you do not answer, it switches back to fax mode to allow the calling party to manually send a fax.
