Setting up to fax while behind a PBX

If the printer is being used in a business or office, it may be connected to a Private Branch Exchange (PBX) telephone
system. Ordinarily, when dialing a fax number, the printer waits to recognize the dial tone and then dials the fax
number. However, this method of dialing may not work if the PBX telephone system uses a dial tone that is not
recognizable to most fax machines. The “Behind PBX (Dial Tone Detect Off)” feature enables the printer to dial the
fax number without waiting to recognize the dial tone.
