Receiving Faxes

Connect the answering machine.

Using the unit with an answering machine

!

Setting up the fax machine and an answering machine

2

Set the number of rings on the answering machine to less than 4.

This will allow the answering machine to answer the call first.

3

Record a greeting message on the answering machine.
Example:

“This is (your name, business and/or telephone number). We are unable to
answer the phone right now. To send a fax, start transmission. To leave a
message, please speak after the beep. Thank you.”

We recommend you record a message up to 10 seconds long, and do not pause for more
than 4 seconds during the message. Otherwise, both machines will not function correctly.

4

Activate the answering machine.

5

Set the fax machine to the desired receiving mode (p. 44, 45).

If you set to FAX ONLY mode, change the ring setting in FAX ONLY mode to more
than 4 (feature #06 on page 62)
. Using FAX ONLY mode will allow you to receive faxes
if the answering machine is full.

6

Check the remote access code of the answering machine and program the same code into
the remote operation ID of the fax machine. See feature #12 on page 63.
