Auto Receive Mode [FAX]

Your machine is connected to a telephone line reserved only
for fax communication. (This is the factory setting).
Your machine assumes all incoming calls are fax messages
and automatically receives all incoming fax messages.

Manual Receive Mode [TEL]

You use the same line for both fax and telephone calls and the
majority of your incoming calls are telephone calls.
When someone calls, your machine rings like a telephone.
You can answer from an external telephone connected to your
machine. If you pick up the hand set and hear fax machine
tones, press the Start key to receive the fax. If you do not
answer the phone and someone tries to send you a fax
message, your machine will not accept it.

Telephone/Fax Mode [T/F]

Incoming calls are a mix of fax and telephone calls.
In this mode your machine detects whether the incoming call
is a fax or a voice call. When the call is from another fax
machine, your machine switches to fax mode and receives the
message. When the call is a voice call, your machine rings
like a telephone. If you do not answer, it switches back to fax
mode to allow the calling party to manually send a fax.
