Block or unblock fax numbers
If you do not want to receive faxes from specific people or businesses, you can block as many as 30
fax numbers by using the control panel. When you block a fax number and someone from that
number sends you a fax, the control-panel display indicates that the number is blocked, the fax does
not print, and the fax is not saved in memory. Faxes from blocked fax numbers appear in the fax
activity log with a “discarded” designation. You can unblock blocked fax numbers individually or all at
one time.
NOTE: The sender of a blocked fax is not notified that the fax failed.
1. From the Home screen, touch the Fax button.
2. Touch the Fax Menu button.
3. Touch the Receive Options button.
4. Touch the Block Junk Faxes button.
5. Touch the Add Number button.
6. Use the keypad to enter the fax number that you want to block, and then touch the OK button.
Set the number of rings-to-answer
When the answer mode is set to Automatic , the product rings-to-answer setting determines the
number of times the telephone rings before the product answers an incoming call.
If the product is connected to a line that receives both fax and voice calls (a shared line) and that also
uses an answering machine, you might need to adjust the rings-to-answer setting. The number of
rings-to-answer for the product must be greater than the rings-to-answer on the answering machine.
This allows the answering machine to answer the incoming call and record a message if it is a voice
call. When the answering machine answers the call, the product listens to the call and automatically
answers it if it detects fax tones.
The default setting for rings-to-answer is five for the U.S. and Canada, and two for other countries/
regions.
Use the following table to determine the number of rings-to-answer to use.
