Fax Reception Modes
There are two ways you can set up the machine to handle incoming calls.
Manual fax reception (an external telephone required)
Auto fax reception
An external telephone is required to use this machine as a telephone.
The reception mode can be switched under Switch Reception Mode in the Fax Settings menu.
Manual Fax Reception
When a telephone call comes in, the machine rings. If the call is a fax document, you must switch manually to fax mode.
When the machine rings, pick up the handset of the external telephone.
If you hear beeps, press [Start]. ([Start] is only available in fax mode when an original is not placed.)
Replace the handset of the external telephone. The machine will start receiving.
The machine does not operate in sleep mode even if you lift the handset of the external telephone. To operate the machine, you must exit sleep mode.
Auto Fax Reception
When a telephone call comes in, the machine automatically receives it as a fax document.
Use this setting on a dedicated fax line.
