If you pick up the phone before the printer answers the call and hear fax tones from a sending fax
machine, you need to answer the fax call manually.
If you encounter problems setting up the printer with optional equipment, contact your local service
provider or vendor for further assistance.
Case F: Shared voice/fax line with voice mail
If you receive both voice calls and fax calls at the same phone number, and you also subscribe to
a voice mail service through your telephone company, set up the printer as described in this section.
NOTE: You cannot receive faxes automatically if you have a voice mail service at the same phone
number you use for fax calls. You must receive faxes manually; this means you must be available to
respond in person to incoming fax calls. If you want to receive faxes automatically instead, contact
your telephone company to subscribe to a distinctive ring service, or to obtain a separate phone line
for faxing.
