Receiving Faxes
Select Answer Mode
Manual — You must answer all calls yourself. If you hear fax tones, press
Start
to begin receiving the fax, then hang up. You must use this mode with
Distinctive Ring.
Fax Only — The fax machine automatically answers every call as a fax call.
You cannot receive a voice call, but you can dial out and make a voice call.
F/T — The fax machine automatically answers every call. If the call is a fax, it
prints the fax. If the call is not a fax, it signals you with a double ring (ring-ring),
different from the phone company ringing, to alert you to pick up the call. If you
select this setting, you’ll need to set the Ring Delay and F/T Ring Time features
(on the following pages). If you have extension phones on the same line as the
fax machine, set Ring Delay to 4.
