• If you’ve entered the correct passcode, your fax machine will print all docu-

ments in its memory and then erase them. Then it will turn security
reception back off until the next time your machine is set to secure receive.

• If you’ve entered an incorrect code, your fax machine will refuse to print,

and security reception remains active.

Masking the

PIN

To prevent unauthorized long-distance calls, some office telephone systems require
you to enter not only the phone number but also a personal identification number
(

PIN

) whenever you dial an outside number beginning with 1.

If that’s true for you, you’ll probably want to keep that

PIN

confidential, so unautho-

rized persons can’t use it. Fortunately, your fax’s

PIN

mask feature makes such

confidentiality possible. With the

PIN

mask activated, you can dial a fax number

plus a

PIN

, but the

PIN

will not appear in a journal, error message printout, delayed

command list or even

TCR

, where an unauthorized user might see it. The

PIN

may be

up to eight characters in length (it can include the * or # symbols, if necessary), and
can be entered from the numeric keypad.

Important: For this feature to work, the passcode (see page 2.45) must be some-

thing besides 0000, and you must know the passcode.

There are three possible settings for the

PIN MASK

feature:

Off — The feature isn’t working. Any

PIN

you enter will appear on any display or

printout which shows what you dial.

Mode 1 — Each remote fax unit has a departmental

PIN

access code.

Mode 2 — Each fax user has a departmental

PIN

access code.

Note: If you select Mode 1 and you will use a one-touch or speed-dial number, you

must store the remote unit’s

PIN

access code within that number. However,

if you select Mode 2, this isn’t necessary. (See “Autodialing while using the

PIN

mask,” this page, right column for further details.)

Activating the

PIN

mask

Important: For this feature to work, you must have preset the passcode to

something besides 0000. If necessary, review “The key to it all —
the passcode,” page 2.45.

Autodialing while using the

mask

Note: The following instructions presume you understand how to set and use your

machine’s autodialer. If you need to review, see pages 2.8–2.13.
