Samsung 5400 manual Using Voice Request, Initiating a Voice Request, Answering a Voice Request

Using Voice Request

The voice request feature allows you to have a conversation with a person at a remote fax machine after a fax communication is finished. Either the person sending or receiving the fax can initiate a voice request.

If you are sending a fax, you can answer a voice request only after all pages have been transmitted. If you are receiving a fax, you can answer a voice request after reception of each page.

You will know if the person on the other fax machine has issued a voice request when you hear a warbling tone. If you do not respond in approximately six seconds, the voice request is automatically cancelled.

!You need to have either the optional handset or an external telephone attached to the fax machine in order

to use the voice request function.

You can use the voice request function only when you are using the document feeder to send a fax directly to a single location. You cannot use it with memory, delayed, relay, or broadcast faxing.
