Remote Retrieval
This section is for the FAX 870MC and MFC 970MC. (If you have the FAX 770,
please see Chapter 9 for your remote fax options.) You can call your FAX/MFC
from any touch tone phone (or remote Group 3 fax machine) and use a Remote
Access Code and other button presses to retrieve voice (and fax) messages. You can
also program and change some settings for your Message Center.

The FAX/MFC then prompts you with two short beeps to enter a command.
