Setting the redial options
If the all-in-one was unable to send a fax because the receiving fax machine did not answer or
was busy, the all-in-one attempts to redial based on the settings for the busy-redial and
no-answer-redial options. Use the following procedure to turn the options on or off.
z Busy redial
If this option is turned on, the all-in-one redials automatically if it receives a busy signal.
The factor-set default for this option is ON.
z No answer redial
If this option is turned on, the all-in-one redials automatically if the receiving fax machine
does not answer. The factory-set default for this option is OFF.
To set the redial options
z Embedded Web server (network connection)
Open the embedded Web server, click the Settings tab, click Fax in the left pane, click the
Advanced tab.
z Control panel
Press M
ENU, open the ADV FAX SETUP menu, and use the No-answer redial option.
Setting up faxing for the all-in-one
This section contains information about the following topics. These are procedures that usually
need to be performed only once.
z Connecting the all-in-one to a phone line
z Connecting an additional telephone device
z Configuring the time, date, and fax header
z Setting the answer mode (autoanswer)
z Setting the answering ring pattern (if needed)
Connecting the all-in-one to a phone line
To use the fax features of the all-in-one, first connect the all-in-one to the phone line. Use the
following steps to connect the all-in-one to a single phone jack that controls one telephone
line, even if you have two telephone numbers on that line and use a ring-pattern service (such
as distinctive ring).
If you want to connect an additional telephone device to the phone line (such as a modem or
extra phone), see Connecting an additional telephone device.
CAUTION The fax feature of the all-in-one (which is analog) is incompatible with DSL (digital subscriber
line). Damage to equipment can result if you connect the all-in-one directly to a DSL line.
However, you can use DSL if you obtain an appropriate filter from your DSL service provider.
This filter removes the digital signal that would block the all-in-one from communicating
correctly with the phone line. Plug the line for the DSL filter into the phone jack. Then, using
the phone line that came with the all-in-one, connect one end to the open port on the DSL filter
and the other end to the (line-in) port on the all-in-one.
