Answering Mode Options
The answering mode you choose depends on how you use
your fax machine and what telephone equipment is
connected to it. Read through the mode descriptions below,
then follow the instructions to change to the mode that best
fits your needs.
The Answering Modes are:
• Auto Receive Mode [FAX]
• Manual Receive Mode [TEL]
• Telephone/Fax Automatic Switch Mode [T/F]
• Using Your Fax with an Answering Machine [TAD]
• Memory Reception Mode [MEM]
• Fax Forwarding Mode [FWD]
• PC Mode [PC]
Auto Receive Mode [FAX]
If your fax machine is connected to a telephone line reserved
only for fax communications, use the Auto Receive mode.
Your fax machine assumes all incoming calls are fax
messages and automatically receives them.
Manual Receive Mode [TEL]
If you use the same line for both fax and telephone calls and
the majority of your incoming calls are telephone calls, then
the TEL answering mode is your best choice. Each time
someone calls, your fax machine rings like a telephone—it
does not automatically answer. You can answer from either an
external handset or telephone connected to your fax
machine. If you pick up the handset and hear fax tones, press
the Start key to receive the fax. If you do not answer the
phone and someone tries to send you a fax message, your
machine will not accept it.
