Chapter 5. USING THE UNIT AS A TELEPHONE
Your fax machine can be used to make normal telephone calls. You can dial numbers
manually, by pressing the number keys, or by using One-Touch or Speed-Dialling.
Number-Key Dialling
Pick up the handset, and when you hear a dial tone, press number keys. You may now speak
to the person at the other end.
One-Touch Dialling
Pick up the handset, and when you hear the dial tone, press the One-Touch key. If you try
to use a One-Touch number that has not been assigned, you will hear a warning beep and
the display will carry a message reading “NOT ASSIGNED”. The display will return to
normal after 2 seconds.
Speed Dialling
Pick up the handset, and when you hear the dial tone, press Speed-dial and then the two-digit
Speed Dial number.
Mute (Only for FAX 1030 Plus)
1 Press Verify/Mute to put a call on hold.
2 You can put down the handset without disconnecting the call.
3 Pick up the machine’s handset or press Speaker Phone to release the call from hold.
If you press Verify/Mute without lifting the handset or pressing Speaker Phone, this key
works as the Verify key and prints Transmission Verification Report.
Pause
Press Redial/Pause to insert a pause between digits to be dialled.
If your fax machine is connected to a PABX, you may need to insert an additional number
prefix (e.g. “9”) and a “pause” before each fax or telephone number to gain access to the
outside line. When you press Redial/Pause, a dash “-” will appear on the display. By
storing a pause, you can create a delay of 3.5 seconds.
Tone/Pulse
If you have pulse dialling service, but need to send tone signals (for telephone banking, for
example), follow the directions below. If you have touch tone service, you do not need this
feature to send tone signals.
1 Lift the handset.
2 Press #. Any digits dialled after this sends tone signals.
3 When you hang up, the machine returns to pulse dialling service.
