Set fax forwarding
You can set your product to forward incoming faxes to another fax number. When the fax arrives at
your product, it is stored in the memory. The product then dials the fax number that you have specified
and sends the fax. If the product cannot forward a fax because of an error (for example, the number is
busy) and repeated redial attempts are unsuccessful, your product prints the fax.
If the product runs out of memory while receiving a fax, it terminates the incoming fax and only
forwards the pages and partial pages that have been stored in the memory.
When it is using the fax-forwarding feature, the product (rather than the computer) must be receiving
the faxes, and the answer mode must be set to Automatic .
1. From the Home screen on the product control panel, touch the Fax button.
2. Touch the Fax Menu button.
3. Touch the Receive Options button.
4. Touch the Forward Fax button, and touch the On button.
5. Use the keypad to enter the fax-forwarding number, and then touch the OK button.
Set the answer mode
Depending on the situation, set the product answer mode to Automatic , TAM , Fax/Tel , or Manual . The
factory-set default is Automatic .
● Automatic : The product answers incoming calls after a specified number of rings or upon
recognition of special fax tones.
● TAM : The product does not automatically answer the call. Instead, it waits until it detects the fax
tone.
