Using MANUAL Mode

To select MANUAL mode, press

(with no document in the

feeder) until [MANUAL] appears in

the display.

In MANUAL mode, you must answer all
calls (even faxes) by picking up the
machine’s handset or an extension
phone connected to the same line.

Answering with the machine’s

handset

Important: If a document is loaded in
the machine’s feeder, remove it before
performing the steps below.
1
When the machine rings, pick up the
handset.
2
If you hear a fax tone, wait until the
display shows [RECEIVING] and
then replace the handset.
•If [RECEIVING] does not appear (or
if you have set the Fax Signal
Receive setting to NO (pp. 49, 51)),
press to begin reception.
3
If the other party first speaks with
you and then wants to send a fax,
press after speaking. (Press
before the sender presses their
Start key.)

RECEPTION MODE

Answering with an extension

phone

Important: If a document is loaded in
the machine’s feeder, remove it before
performing the steps below.
1
Answer the extension phone when it
rings.
2
If you hear a soft fax tone, wait until
the machine responds (the
extension phone will go dead), then
hang up.
3
If the machine doesn't respond, or if
the other party first talks to you and
then wants to send a fax, press
once and twice on the
extension phone (only on a tone dial
phone). This signals the machine to
begin reception. Hang up.
•The above step is necessary if you
have set the “FAX SIGNAL RX”
setting to NO (pp. 49 and 51).
•To use a number other than “5” to
start fax reception, change the “FAX
REMOTE #” setting (see page 49).
