Advanced receiving operations
Operation from extension telephones
If you answer a fax call on an extension telephone, or an external
telephone into the correct socket on the machine, you can make your
machine take the call by using the Fax Receive Code. When you
press the Fax Receive Code
51
(
91
for New Zealand), the
machine starts to receive a fax. (See
Fax Detect (MFC-3240C only)
on page 4-4 or Fax Detect (FAX-1840C only) on page 4-5.)
If the machine answers a voice call and pseudo/double-rings for you
to take over, use the Telephone Answer Code
#51
(
#91
for New
Zealand) to take the call at an extension phone. (See Setting the F/T
Ring Time (Fax/Tel mode only) on page 4-3.)
If you answer a call and no one is on the line, you should assume that
you’re receiving a manual fax.
Press
51
(
91
for New Zealand) and wait for the chirp or until
the machine’s LCD displays
Receiving
, and then hang up.
Your caller will have to press Start to send the fax.
