Fax Only Mode __________________________________
The FAXPHONE is set up at the factory for both fax transmission and telephone calls.
If you have a dedicated fax line, you need to set the FAXPHONE to Fax Only Mode.
Setting Fax Only Mode
When you set the FAXPHONE to Fax Only Mode, the unit picks up every call and
automatically treats it as a fax transmission.
The FAXPHONE cannot receive automatically if you are making copies, printing
reports, or registering information. See p. 68.
1 Make sure the FAXPHONE is set to “Fax Only
Mode” (see above).
The FAXPHONE assumes all incoming calls are from another fax machine sending a
document. It receives the documents automatically.

Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection (DRPD) Feature
(See p. 21)
Some companies offer a distinctive ring pattern (DRP) service that allows you to as-
sign two or more telephone numbers with distinctive ring patterns to a single tele-
phone line. By subscribing to such a service, you can have both a fax number(s) and a
telephone number(s) for your FAXPHONE using only one phone line.
When a call is made, the FAXPHONE checks the incoming ring pattern and knows if
the call is from another fax unit or from a telephone.
