Getting started
Ans/Fax Ready mode
Use it if: You are using an answering machine connected directly to your fax
machine.
In this mode: An answering machine externally connected to your fax machine
answers each incoming call. If a voice call comes in, the answering
machine will begin to record the incoming message. If the fax tone
starts, your fax machine will detect it and receive the fax message
automatically.
To select Ans/Fax Ready:
Press
RECEIVE
repeatedly until
ANS
/
FAX
light comes on.
Using an answering machine with your fax machine
If you are connecting an answering machine to your fax machine:
1
Follow the steps on page 1.11 to connect an answering machine to your fax
machine.
2
On your fax machine, press
RECEIVE
until the
ANS
/
FAX
light comes on.

Set your answering machine to answer calls after no more than two rings.
(Consult the answering machine’s instructions if necessary).

Finally, use your answering machine to create a new outgoing message.
Here’s a suggested message:
Hello! You’ve reached [your name or telephone number]. To leave a voice mes-
sage, please wait for the beep. To send a fax, press Start on your fax
machine. Thanks for calling!
Important: Your answering machine’s outgoing message must be no longer than
10 seconds.
Detection of “silent” fax machines
Some older fax machines don’t send fax tones when transmitting.
However, your fax machine can accommodate these “silent” machines without dis-
rupting your answering machine operation. For more information, call your
authorized Muratec dealer.
When the paper or ink film runs out
Getting the word from your machine
When your fax machine runs out of paper or ink film, it beeps, the
ALARM
light
glows and the
LCD
displays Check Rx Paper or Check Ink Film message.
Receiving faxes when out of paper or ink film
If your machine runs out of paper or ink film, it stores up to 50 separate fax recep-
tions in memory. This is called out-of-paper reception. When you replenish the
paper or ink film supply, the fax machine will print the stored messages automati-
cally!
Note: How many pages (as opposed to receptions) your fax machine can store for
out-of-paper reception will vary. It depends on your machine’s memory
capacity and the types of documents being sent to your machine. It also
depends on the resolution settings the remote fax uses when sending faxes
to your machine.
Note: During a power failure, all documents stored in memory will be backed-up
up to 72 hours*.
* The machine’s back-up battery requires about 1 day to reach full charge after to the fax
machine is restored.
