Setting silent mode
Silent mode allows you to mute the ringer, alarm and key tones created by your fax.
• Ringer — When you turn the Ringer Silent setting On, your unit will not ring
when you receive a fax or when you receive a voice call and a call request.
• Alarm — When you set the Alarm Silent mode On, your fax will not alert you
with an audio alarm when an error occurs. The beep your fax makes after suc-
cessfully sending or receiving a fax or making a copy is also silenced.
• Key tone — If you set the Key Silent setting On, your machine will not make a
sound when you press buttons on the control panel.
Note: Silent mode allows you to mute the fax’s ringer as well as its beep and key
tones. If you’re using your fax machine as both a fax and phone (with the
optional handset), you may not want to use this feature.
Note: The silent mode can mute any alarms. However, if you set the audible alarm
to on (see page 2.33), the machine alarms when it receives the fax messages.
