Telephone Billing

If you are on a PBX, you can have the fax machine send a code to the PBX
that identifies the sender for billing purposes each time a fax is sent.
Telephone billing is possible in two ways: using Department Control and by
direct billing code entry.

Using Department Control

If you are using the Department Control function, you can use Department
Codes for telephone billing. In this case, the fax machine will automatically
send the Department Code that a department member enters to access the
fax machine to the PBX. The PBX can then use the Department Code to bill
the call to that department.

To use Department Control for telephone billing, program a Department Code
for each group that will use the fax machine (see

Department Control on page

99), and then have your dealer activate Department Control. After this, set
Option Setting 26 (Telephone Billing Code) to ON as explained on page 112.

Direct billing code entry

If you don’t want to use Department Control for telephone billing, you can
have users enter an assigned billing code (any number up 9 digits long) each
time they use the fax machine. The fax machine will automatically send this
code to the PBX for billing purposes. To use this function, have your dealer
activate the function and then set Option Setting 26 (Telephone Billing Code)
to ON as explained on page 112.

Note: The billing code should be assigned by your PBX administrator. Billing
codes are not programmed into the fax machine.

Users should enter their billing code as follows when performing an operation
on the fax machine. The code need only be entered when calling outside of
the PBX.
