Using TEL/FAX (T/F) Mode

3. Receiving Faxes

Using TEL/FAX (T/F) Mode

To select TEL/FAX mode, press

(with no document in the

feeder) until [T/F] appears in the display.

When the reception mode is set to TEL/ FAX, the machine automatically answers all calls on 2 rings (the number of rings can be changed by changing the Number of Rings setting on page 27). After answering, the machine monitors the line for about five seconds to see if a fax tone is being sent.

♦If the machine detects a fax tone (this means that the call is an automatically dialed fax), it will automatically receive the fax.

♦If your machine doesn't detect a fax tone (this means that the call is a voice call or manually dialed fax), it will make a special ringing sound (called “pseudo ringing”) for 15 seconds to alert you to pick up the machine’s handset. If you don't answer within this time, the machine will send a fax tone to the other machine to allow the calling party to send a fax manually.

Note: Only the machine will make the special ringing sound. Another phone connected to the same line will not ring after the machine initially answers the call.

Silent fax reception

To have the machine receive faxes silently and signal voice calls only by pseudo ringing (not regular ringing), set the reception mode to TEL/FAX and turn the ringer off as explained on page 15.
