Receiving Documents Manually with the
Optional Handset
When you use manual receiving, this means you can monitor all incom-
ing calls yourself by picking up the handset every time the fax rings. If
you pick up the handset and determine the call is from another person,
start your conversation. If you hear a slow beep tone, this means the call
is a fax transmission. To receive the document, just press
Start/Scan and
then hang up the handset.
The receiving speed is 14400 bps or less when receiving manually.
