Setting Ring Delay
The Ring Delay setting determines the number of times the MFC
rings before it answers. If you have extension phones on the same

Setting F/T Ring Time
(For FAX/TEL Mode Only)
If you set the answer mode to FAX/TEL, you’ll need to determine
how long the MFC will send you its special double ring when you
have a voice call. This ringing happens after the initial ringing
from your telephone company (Ring Delay). Only the MFC rings,
for 20, 30, 40 or 70 seconds; no other phones on that number will
ring the special double-ring. However, you can answer the call on
any extension phone (in a separate wall jack) on the same phone
number as the MFC.

Now, when a call comes in and the MFC is set to FAX/TEL mode,
all phones on this line will ring the number of times you selected
in Ring Delay.
You can let the MFC pick up and detect if it’s a fax or voice call.
If it’s a fax call, the MFC prints the fax. If it’s a voice call, the
MFC signals you with a double ring for the length of time you
selected in F/T Ring Time.
Even if the caller hangs up during the double ringing, the MFC
continues for the set time.
