7-8 Faxing with your machine —Basic operation Chapter 7
Receiving faxes manually
If you have set <MANUAL MODE>, follow this procedure to receive a fax manually:
1 Make sure you have set <MANUAL MODE> (
p. 7-7).
2 Make sure you have connected a telephone to your machine (
Set-Up Sheet).
3 When the telephone rings, pick up the handset.
4 • If you hear a person’s voice:
Start your conversation. If the caller wants to send a fax after talking to you, ask
them to perform the operation to begin sending. When you hear a slow beep tone,
press [Start] on your machine to begin receiving the fax. Hang up the handset.
• If you hear a slow beep tone or silence:
Someone is trying to send you a fax. If your telephone is close to your machine,
press [Start] on the machine to begin receiving the fax. Hang up the handset. If you
are far from your machine, dial 25 (the remote receiving ID) on your telephone and
hang up.
NOTE
• You can customize remote receiving by enabling/disabling it, or by changing the remote receiving ID
( <REMOTE RX>, p. 11-5).
• If you have an answering machine connected to your machine that can carry out remote-control
operations (controlling your answering machine from a remote telephone), the security code for this
function may be the same as the remote receiving ID. If so, make sure you change the machine’s remote
receiving ID to make it distinct from the answering machine’s security code ( <REMOTE RX ID>,
p. 11-5).
Canceling receiving
Press [Stop/Reset] and follow any instructions in the LCD.
