CHAPTER EIGHT
Call Reservation with an External Telephone
(Only for MFC-9050)
If you connect an external telephone to the unit, you can send a fax and
then talk to the recipient using the Call Reservation feature. After your
fax has been printed on the receiving end, the receiving fax machine will
ring as if it were receiving a telephone call. When the recipient picks up
the handset, your fax machine will ring. Then you can pick up your
handset of the external telephone and press Tel, then start a conversation.
For further information on how to use this function, see chap. 6.
