Setting the F/T Ring Time 
(Fax/Tel mode only)
If you set the Receive Mode to Fax/Tel, 
you’ll need to decide how long the MFC will 
signal you with its special pseudo/double-ring 
when you have a voice call. (If it’s a fax call, 
the MFC receives the fax.)
This pseudo/double-ring happens after the 
initial ringing from the phone company. Only 
the MFC rings and no other phones on the 
same line will ring with the special 
pseudo/double-ring. However, you can still 
answer the call on any telephone on the same 
line as the MFC. (See For Fax/Tel mode only 
on page A-4.)

Easy Receive
When you use this feature you don’t have to 
press Start or the Fax Receive Code 
51
when you answer a fax call. Selecting On 
allows the MFC to receive fax calls 
automatically, even if you lift the handset of 
an extension or external phone. When you 
see Receiving on the LCD or when you 
hear ‘chirps’ through the handset of an 
extension phone connected to another 
telephone wall jack, just replace the handset 
and your MFC will do the rest.
Note
■
If this feature is set to On, but your MFC 
does not connect a fax call when you lift 
an extension or external phone handset, 
press the Fax Receive Code 
51.
■
If you send faxes from a computer on the 
same phone line and the MFC intercepts 
them, set Easy Receive to Off.
■
Selecting Off means you’ll have to 
activate the MFC yourself by lifting the 
handset of an external or extension 
phone, and then press Start on the MFC
—OR—
by pressing 
51 if you are not at your
MFC. (See Operation from extension 
telephones on page A-4.)
