Setup Receive
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 fax machine will signal you with its special
pseudo/double-ring when you have a voice call. (If it’s a fax call, the
fax machine prints the fax.) This pseudo double ringing happens
after the initial ringing from the phone company. Only the fax
machine 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 extension phone (in a separate wall jack) on the same
line as the fax machine. (See Operation from extension telephones
on page 5-5.)

Easy Receive
When you use this feature, you don’t have to press Fax Start or the
Fax Receive Code
5 1 when you answer a fax call and hear
calling beeps. Just hold the handset and wait a few seconds.
Selecting ON allows the fax machine to receive fax calls
automatically, even if you lift the machine’s handset or the handset
of an extension or external phone. When you see RECEIVE on the
LCD or when you hear “chirps” through the handset of an
extension phone connected to another wall jack, just replace the
handset and the fax machine will do the rest. SEMI lets the fax
machine receive the fax only if you’ve answered it at the fax
machine.

Even if the caller hangs up during the pseudo/double-ringing,
