Setting the F/T Ring Time (For FAX/TEL Mode Only)
If you set the receive mode to FAX/TEL, you’ll need to determine how long the
MFC will send you its special double-ring when you have a voice call. This
ringing happens
after the initial ringing from the phone company. Only the
MFC rings, for 20, 30, 40 or 70 seconds; no other phones on the same line ring
the special double-ring. However, you can answer the call on any extension
phone (in a separate wall jack) on the same line as the MFC. (See
Operation
from Extension Telephone , page 6-5.)
1
Press Menu/Set , 2 , 1 , 2 .
2
Press to select how long the fax machine will ring to alert you that you have
a voice call, and then press Menu/Set .
3 Press Stop/Exit .
Now, when a call comes in and the MFC is set to FAX/TEL mode, all phones
on this line will ring the number of times you selected in Ring Delay.
You can let the MFC answer and detect if it’s a fax or voice call. If it’s a fax call,
the MFC prints the fax. If it’s a voice call, the MFC signals you with a double-
ring for the length of time you selected in F/T Ring Time.
Easy Receive
When you use this feature, you don’t have to press Black Fax Start when you
answer a fax call and hear calling beeps. Just hold the handset and wait a few
seconds. When you see
RECEIVING on the LCD or when you hear “chirps”
through the handset of an extension phone connected to another wall jack, just
replace the handset. Your fax machine does the rest. Selecting
ON allows the
MFC to receive fax calls automatically, even if you lift the handset of an
extension or external phone. Selecting
SEMI lets the MFC receive the call only
if you’ve answered it at the MFC. Selecting OFF means you’ll have to activate
the MFC yourself, by pressing Black Fax Start or by pressing 5 1 if you
are not at your MFC.
(See
Operation from Extension Telephones , page 6-5 and For FAX/TEL Mode Only ,
page 6-5.)
Even if the caller hangs up during the double-ringing, the MFC continues for
the set time.
Note
If you’ve set the feature to ON , but your MFC doesn’t automatically connect a
fax call when you lift an external or extension phone handset, press the Fax
Receive code
5 1 . At the MFC, lift the handset and then press Black Fax
Start .
Note
If you send faxes from a computer on the same phone line and the MFC
intercepts them, set Easy Receive to OFF.
