Choosing the Receive Mode (FAX-1920CN only)
There are four different Receive Modes for your machine. You can
choose the mode that best suits your needs. (See
Message Center
(FAX-1920CN only) on page 9-1 to set up the
MC:Msg Ctr
mode.)
* In
Fax/Tel
mode you must set the Ring Delay and F/T Ring Time.
If you have extension phones on the line, keep the Ring Delay set to
4 rings.
LCD How it works When to use it
Fax Only
(automatic receive)
The machine
automatically answers
every call as a fax.
For dedicated fax lines.
Fax/Tel*
(fax and telephone)
The machine controls the
line and automatically
answers every call. If the
call is a fax it will receive
the fax. If the call is not a
fax it will ring
(pseudo/double ring) for
you to pick up the call.
Use this mode if you expect to receive lots of fax
messages and few telephone calls. You cannot
have an answering machine on the same line, even
if it is on a separate wall jack (phone socket) on the
same line. You cannot use the telephone
company’s Voice Mail in this mode.
Manual
(manual receive)
(with Distinctive Ring)
You control the phone
line and must answer
every call yourself.
Use this mode when you are using a computer
modem on the same line or if you don’t receive
many fax messages or with Distinctive Ring.
If you answer and hear fax tones, wait until the
machine takes over the call, then hang up. (See
Easy Receive (FAX-1920CN only) on page 5-9.)

Use this mode if an external phone or an external
TAD is connected on the same line. Make sure
Easy Receive is set to ON. (See Easy Receive
(FAX-1920CN only) on page 5-9.)
