Fax tones are recorded on my answering machine
Solution:
When you have an answering machine on the same phone line you use for fax
calls, try connecting the answering machine directly to the device as described
in
Case I: Shared voice/fax line with answering machine. If you do not connect
the answering machine as recommended, fax tones might be recorded on your
answering machine.
Make sure the device is set to receive faxes automatically and that the Rings
to Answer setting is correct. The number of rings to answer for the device
should be greater than the number of rings to answer for the answering
machine. If the answering machine and the device are set to the same number
of rings to answer, both devices answer the call and fax tones are recorded on
the answering machine.
Set your answering machine to a low number of rings and the device to answer
in the maximum number of rings supported. (The maximum number of rings
varies by country/region.) In this setup, the answering machine answers the
call and the device monitors the line. If the device detects fax tones, the device
receives the fax. If the call is a voice call, the answering machine records the
incoming message. For more information, see
Set the number of rings before
answering.
The phone cord that came with my device is not long enough
Solution: If the phone cord that came with the device is not long enough, you
can use a coupler to extend the length. You can purchase a coupler at an
electronics store that carries phone accessories. You will also need another phone
cord, which can be a standard phone cord that you might already have in your
home or office.
TIP: If the device came with a 2-wire phone cord adaptor, you can use it with
a 4-wire phone cord to extend the length. For information on using the 2-wire
phone cord adaptor, see the documentation that came with it.
To extend your phone cord
1. Using the phone cord supplied in the box with the device, connect one end to
the coupler, then connect the other end to the port labeled 1-LINE on the back
of the device.
2. Connect another phone cord to the open port on the coupler and to the
telephone wall jack.
