Receiving a Fax
About the Receiving Modes
•In Fax mode, the machine answers an incoming fax call and immediately goes into the fax reception mode.
•In Tel mode, you can receive a fax by pressing On Hook Dial (you can hear a fax tone from the remote machine) and then pressing Start Copy/Fax on the control panel of your machine. You can also pick up the handset of the extension phone and then press the remote receive code; see page 2.8.
•In Ans/Fax mode, the answering machine answers an incoming call, and the caller can leave a message on the answering machine. If the fax machine senses a fax tone on the line, the call automatically switches to Fax mode.
•In DRPD mode, you can receive a call using the Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection (DRPD) feature. “Distinctive Ring” is a telephone company service which enables a user to use a single telephone line to answer several different telephone numbers. For further details, see page 2.8.
The current receiving mode displays when the machine is in Standby mode.
When the memory is full, the receiving mode automatically switches to Tel.
NOTES:
•To use Ans/Fax mode, attach an answering machine to the EXT jack on the back of your machine. See page 1.10.
•If you do not want other people to view your received documents, you can use Secure Receiving mode. In this mode, all of the received faxes are stored in the memory. For further details, see page 4.2.
