Receiving Manually Using an Extension Telephone

This features works best when you are using an extension telephone connected to the EXT. jack on the back of your machine. You can receive a fax from someone you are talking to on the extension telephone without going to the fax machine.

When you receive a call on the extension phone and hear fax tones, press the keys 9 on the extension telephone. The machine receives the document.

Press the buttons slowly in sequence. If you still hear the fax tone from the remote machine, press 9 again.

9 is the remote receive code preset at the factory. The first and the last asterisks are fixed, but you can change the middle number to any number. For details about changing the code, see Receive Code on page 7-3.

Receiving Faxes Using the DRPD Mode

“Distinctive Ring” is a telephone company service which enables a user to use a single telephone line to answer several different telephone numbers. The particular number someone uses to call you is identified by different ringing patterns, which consist of various combinations of long and short ringing sounds.

Using the Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection feature, your fax machine can “learn” the ring pattern you designate to be answered by the fax machine. Unless you change it, this ringing pattern will continue to be recognized and answered as a fax call, and all other ringing patterns will be forwarded to the extension telephone or answering machine plugged into the EXT. jack. You can easily suspend or change Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection at any time.

Before using the Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection option, Distinctive Ring service must be installed on your telephone line by the telephone company. To set up Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection, you will need another telephone line at your location, or someone available to dial your fax number from outside.

To set up the DRPD mode:

1.Press Menu until “Fax Setup” appears on the top line of the display.

2.Press the scroll button ( or ) until you see “Receive Mode” on the bottom line and press Enter.

3.Press the scroll button ( or ) until you see “DRPD Mode” on the bottom line and press Enter.

4.When “Set” displays on the bottom line, press Enter.

“Waiting Ring” appears on the display.

5.Call your fax number from another telephone. It is not necessary to place the call from a fax machine.

6.When your machine begins to ring, do not answer the call. The machine requires several rings to learn the pattern.
