Telephone Answering Device Mode [TAD]

You have an external, optional answering machine connected to your fax machine.

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 protect data received via Memory Reception mode. The data cannot be accessed without the password.
