For example, you can leave a message that says:
“Hello, please wait, we are trying to connect you. If you wish to send a fax, please wait until you
hear a fax tone and press the Start key, or, press 5 1 ( 9 1 for New Zealand) (your three-digit
remote Fax Receive Code) and press the Start key.”
Fax Detect
When you use this feature, you don’t have to press Fax Start when you answer a fax call and hear
calling beeps. Just hold the handset and wait for several seconds. When you see RECEIVE on the
fax screen or when you hear “chirps” through the handset of an extension phone connected to another
wall jack, just replace the handset, and your machine does the rest.
• Selecting ON allows the machine to receive fax calls automatically, even if you lift the handset
of an extension phone, an external phone, a phone or TAD connected to the machine.
• Selecting SEMI lets the fax machine receive the call only if you’ve answered it at the machine.
• Selecting OFF means you will have to activate the machine yourself, by pressing Fax Start or
by pressing 5 1 ( 9 1 for New Zealand) if you are not at your machine. (

Printing a Reduced Incoming Document
You can always reduce the size of an incoming fax to a fixed percentage with your machine. If you
choose AUTO, the machine reduces an incoming document automatically, so that it fits on one page
of A4 recording paper, regardless of the size of the original document.

Press Menu/Set, 2, 5. The screen displays
It is not necessary to have an outgoing message. The F/T mode will work fine
without one. It is only to help the caller understand the status of your machine.
