Receiving Faxes

FAX ONLY mode ring count

This setting determines the number of rings before the unit answers a call in the FAX ONLY mode. You can choose from 1 to 4 rings.

Helpful hints:

To answer a call before the unit does, increase the number of rings.

If you have difficulty receiving faxes, the other parties may have tried to send faxes before confirming if your unit answered or not. Decrease the number of rings.

Note:

If you subscribe to a Caller ID service, set this ring count setting to 2 or more rings.

If you have a telephone line just for receiving faxes, we recommend the following setup.

Line 1 – Voice calls

Line 2 – Fax calls

Only a fax machine is connected.

Example: One telephone line is used for voice calls and a separate telephone line for faxes. If someone sends a fax to Line 2, the fax machine will ring.
