Faxes and your voice mail
service
If you subscribe to a voicemail service
on the same phone line that you will
use for faxing, you cannot receive
faxes automatically. Instead, you must
receive make sure the Auto Answer
setting is turned off so that you can
receive faxes manually. Be sure you
initiate the manual fax before the
voicemail picks up the line.
If you want to receive faxes
automatically instead, contact your
telephone company to subscribe to a
distinctive ring service or to obtain a
separate phone line for faxing.
Receive a fax automatically
If you turn on the Auto Answer option (the
default setting) from the printer’s control
panel, the printer automatically answers
incoming calls and receives faxes after
the number of rings specied by the Rings
to Answer setting. For information about
conguring this setting, see ”Step 3:
Congure fax settings” on page 11.
Receive faxes
You can receive faxes automatically or
manually.
Note: If you receive a legal-size
or larger fax and the printer is not
currently set to use legal-size paper,
the printer reduces the fax so that it
ts on the paper that is loaded. If you
have disabled the Automatic Reduction
feature, the printer prints the fax on two
pages.
If you are copying a document when a
fax arrives, the fax is stored in the printer’s
memory until the copying nishes. As a
result, the number of fax pages that can be
stored in memory might be reduced.
