Basic operation
Answering calls manually
In any reception mode, you can always answer calls manually if a telephone is con-
nected to your machine. Just pick it up, as you would if using a normal phone.
If you hear someone speaking to you, use your tele-
phone to speak back.
If you hear fax tones (“beep — beep — beep”),
press
START and hang up your telephone.
The fax machine will begin receiving a fax.
Answering fax calls using another phone, not connected to your
fax machine
If you have one phone line ringing to several phones in your office and a telephone
attached to your fax, there’s no need to run to the fax machine to answer every call.
If you happen to answer a fax call while you’re at another extension, put the hand-
set down, but don’t hang up. Walk to the fax machine and pick up the telephone
which is connected to the fax machine. Then press
START .
After you press START , hang up both the telephone’s handsets. Because remote fax
machines will wait several seconds to hear reception tones from your unit, you have
about 30 seconds to walk to your fax, pick up the handset, and press
START .
Reception modes
Your fax machine has five different reception modes — Tel Ready, Fax Ready,
Fax/Tel Ready, Tel/Fax Ready and Ans/Fax Ready. We’ll explain each of these in
this section.
Tel Ready mode
Use it if: • You want to use the same line for both fax and phone calls
and
• On that line, you’re using at least one other phone which is not
connected to your fax machine
or
• On that line, you’re using at least one other phone which is not
connected to your fax machine
In this mode: Your fax machine never answers calls automatically. You must
answer each call and if you hear a fax tone, press START on your fax
machine to receive a fax message.
Fax Ready mode
Use it if: Your fax machine uses its own phone line and doesn’t share it with a
phone or an answering machine.
In this mode: Your fax machine answers each call and attempts to receive a fax.
Fax/Tel Ready mode
Use it if: • A telephone is connected directly to your fax machine
and
• You’re using the machine as both a fax machine and a telephone
In this mode: Your fax machine receives faxes silently but also alerts you when a
regular voice call comes in. (Your fax machine also beeps once at the
end of each reception.)
If a voice call comes in, your fax machine detects it and sounds a
special ring. If you hear it, answer using your phone.
Note: This Fax/Tel Ready mode won’t turn off ringers on other telephones in your
house or office. Other phones won’t distinguish between fax and voice calls.
