Use the telephone to receive manual calls as follows:
1. When you answer a call and hear a long beep or silence, a fax is
being sent.
2. Enter the two-digit ID code on your telephone. Wait for five
seconds, then hang up. The MultiPASS C3000 then begins receiving
the document.
Using an Answering MachineAns. Machine Mode
Connecting an answering machine to the MultiPASS C3000 allows you
to receive faxes and phone messages while you are out of the office.
In Answer Machine Mode, the MultiPASS C3000 allows the answering
machine to answer incoming calls, then listens for a fax tone or for four
seconds of silence (also an indication that a fax is coming in), and
automatically receives the fax if it detects the tone or a four-second
silence. (Four seconds is the default; you can change this value.)

Canon does not recommend using an answering service (like those
offered by local telephone companies that provide voice mail) on the
telephone line you are connecting to the MultiPASS C3000. If you do
subscribe to an answering service, you may want to dedicate a separate
line for fax communication only and connect that line to the MultiPASS
C3000. Or, you can see if your telephone company offers a Distinctive
Ring Pattern (DRP) service (see page 5-8 for details).
Using the MultiPASS C3000 With an
Answering Machine
Follow these guidelines when using the MultiPASS C3000 with an
answering machine:
❍ Set the answering machine to answer on the first or second ring.
❍ If the MultiPASS C3000 runs out of paper or ink in Answer
Machine Mode, it receives all faxes into its memory. The faxes then
print automatically when you add paper or replace the BJ cartridge.
