time. For example, the standard telephone ring is 2 seconds "on" (ringing) and 4

actually can send or receive a fax message and have a regular phone conversation
on the same call (although, obviously, not at the same time). This is called a call

Important: For this feature to work, the remote fax machine must have a similar
call-request capability. Also, of course, your machine must have an
optional handset attached.
