Answering with an extension phone

1 Answer the extension phone when

it rings.

2 If you hear a fax tone when you

answer the extension phone, wait until your fax answers (the extension phone will go dead), and then hang up.

Beep

Phone goes dead

3 If the fax doesn't respond, or if the

other party first talks to you and then wants to send a fax, press 5, *, and * on the extension phone (only on a tone dial phone). This signals the fax to begin reception. Hang up.

Comments:

♦Your fax will not accept the signal to begin reception (5**) if a document is loaded in its feeder.

♦If you have set Option Setting 12 to NO and hear a fax tone when you answer the extension phone, you must press 5, *, and * if you are on a tone dial phone, or walk over to the fax, pick up the handset, and press the START/MEMORY key if you are on a pulse dial only phone.

♦In New Zealand, not all standard telephones and answering machines will respond to incoming ringing when connected to the socket of the equipment.
