When a telephone ring is detected, the answering machine picks up the call.

If the printer detects a fax, it receives the fax and disconnects the answering machine.

If the printer does not detect a fax, the answering machine receives the call.

Set the answering machine to answer incoming calls before the printer does.

For example, if you set the answering machine to answer calls after three rings, set the printer to answer calls
after five rings.

Using Caller ID

Caller ID is a service provided by some telephone companies that identifies the telephone number (and possibly the
name) of the person who is calling. If you subscribe to this service, it works with the printer. When you receive a fax,
the telephone number of the person who is sending you the fax appears on the display.

Note: Caller ID is available only in some countries and regions.
