How phone calls and faxes are received
1. “INCOMING CALL” will be displayed but the
unit will not ring.
2. The unit will wait for the duration of 2 rings
before answering the call.
LThe number of rings is determined by the
“TEL/FAX delayed ring setting” (feature
#78 on page 62).
LDuring this time, an extension telephone
(if connected to the same line) will ring.
3. The unit will answer the call and try to detect
a fax calling tone.
When a fax calling tone is detected
The unit receives the fax automatically
without ringing.
When a fax calling tone is not detected
A The unit will ring. You may answer the call.
LCallers will hear a ring back tone different
from the one generated by the telephone
company.
LAn extension telephone (if connected to
the same line) will not ring at this time.
B If you do not answer the call, the unit will
activate the fax function.
LSome fax machines do not generate fax
calling tones when sending faxes,
therefore the unit will try to receive a fax
even if no fax calling tone is detected.
Note:
LIf you answer a call with the extension
telephone, the fax machine may activate the
fax function depending on the type of an
extension telephone. Press {STOP} on the
fax machine to talk with the calling party.
LBy default, the unit reduces the size of the
received document to 92% when printing
(See feature #36 on page 61 for details).
