Receiving a fax in Fax Only mode
When the reception mode is set to Fax Only mode, the machine automatically answers all incoming
calls in fax reception mode.
You can specify the number of times the machine rings before answering a call in the [Number of
Rings] setting under [Fax Features].
If you answer a call with the external telephone while the machine is ringing, a normal telephone
call starts. If you hear a fax calling tone or no sound, receive the fax manually.
For details about [Number of Rings], see p.270 "Fax Feature Settings".
For details about manually receiving a fax, see p.241 "Receiving a fax in FAX/TEL Manual mode".
Receiving a fax in FAX/TEL Automatic mode
When the reception mode is set to FAX/TEL Automatic mode, the machine receives a fax automatically
if the incoming call is a fax call and rings when it receives voice calls.
1. When there is an incoming call, the machine tries to detect a fax calling tone for five seconds.
If a fax calling tone is detected, the machine starts to receive the fax automatically.
2. If a fax calling tone is not detected, the machine starts to ring, and continues to try to detect a fax
calling tone for the period of time specified in [RX Mode Auto Switch Time] under [Fax Features].
If a fax calling tone is detected, or if you do not pick up the handset, the machine starts to
receive the fax automatically.
To start a normal telephone call, pick up the handset, press the [Facsimile] key, and then press
the [Clear/Stop] key. If you hear a fax calling tone or no sound, receive the fax manually.
If you pick up the handset but the time specified in [RX Mode Auto Switch Time] passes before
a normal telephone call starts, the machine starts to receive the fax automatically.
After you pick up the handset to answer a call, make sure to press the [Facsimile] key to activate
fax mode before pressing the [Clear/Stop] key. If the machine is not in fax mode, pressing the
[Clear/Stop] key will not let you start a normal telephone call.
For details about [RX Mode Auto Switch Time], see p.270 "Fax Feature Settings".
