CX5800F returns to the first fax mode screen. The Epson Stylus

If you’re sending a color fax, or a large document that fills up the
memory area, the Epson Stylus CX5800F scans and faxes one
page at a time. It then asks if you want to send another page.
Receiving Faxes
The Epson Stylus CX5800F automatically receives and prints
faxes in Auto Answer mode. However, you may want to
receive faxes manually if you connected the Epson Stylus
CX5800F and a phone or answering machine to a phone line
that also receives voice calls. Then you can check for a fax tone
from the sending fax machine and press a button on the Epson
Stylus CX5800F to receive the fax, or allow your answering
machine to determine if the call is an incoming fax.
Note:
Make sure you selected the Paper Size
setting that matches the size
of paper you’ve loaded. If the incoming fax pages are larger than the
paper size you loaded, the fax size is reduced to fit or printed on
multiple pages, depending on the Automatic Reduction setting you
select. See page 14 for details.
Selecting the Answer Mode
The Epson Stylus CX5800F
tells you whether Auto Answer
is turned on or not on the first
screen:
To change the answer mode,
press the
Answer Mode
button. The
Y or N changes
on the first screen. Press
Answer Mode again to
change it back.
Note:
You can select the number of rings that must occur before the Epson
Stylus CX5800F receives a fax using the Rings to Answer setting.
See page 14 for details.
