Set the number of rings on the answering machine to less than 4.

This will allow the answering machine to answer the call first.

Record a greeting message on the answering machine.
Example:
“This is (your name, business and/or telephone number). We are unable to
answer the phone right now. To send a fax, start transmission. To leave a
message, please speak after the beep. Thank you.”
●
We recommend you record a message up to 10 seconds long, and do not pause for more
than 4 seconds during the message. Otherwise, both machines will not function correctly.

Activate the answering machine.

Set the fax machine to the desired receiving mode (p. 44, 45).
●
If you set to FAX ONLY mode, change the ring setting in FAX ONLY mode to more
than 4 (feature #06 on page 62). Using FAX ONLY mode will allow you to receive faxes
if the answering machine is full.
