Fax Receive Modes
You have several choices for how you want to receive faxes with this machine:
• Fax: Where the machine answers an incoming fax call and immediately goes into fax reception
mode, according to the features you have set up on the machine.
• Tel: Receives a fax when you press [on hook dial button] and then Start, where you are at the
machine.
• Answering machine: Where you have an answering machine connected to the machine which is
set up to answer faxes as they come in.
• These options are accessible at the machine through the Fax Setup process, as described below.
Another option, Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection or DRPD, requires a special telephone company
service on your phone line and is accessible in the System Setup menu on your machine (see procedure
below). With DRPD, you program your fax machine to recognize particular rings as fax machines
sending faxes. See Distinctive Ring Mode for instructions on how to set up and use this fax receive
option.
Changing the Receive Mode
The Receive mode was set up at installation of your machine. To change the mode:
1. Press the Info button on the control panel. Scroll to Fax Setup and press OK.
2. Scroll to Receiving. Press OK.
3. Scroll to Receive mode. Press OK.
4. Select the mode you want to use by scrolling through the list. Press OK.
Note: To set up a DRPD receive mode requires different steps, as described below.
The modes are described below.
Fax Mode
Faxes will be received as they come in and either printed immediately, forwarded, and/or saved,
depending on the features you have setup as defaults on your machine.
Since your machine is a multi-tasking device, it can receive faxes while you are making copies or
printing. If you receive a fax while you are copying or printing, your machine stores the incoming fax in
its memory. Then, as soon as you finish copying or printing, the machine automatically prints the fax.
