Voice Operations

Voice calls can be made either with an
extension or external telephone.
Tone or pulse
(Canada only)
If you are using an external phone and have
a pulse dialing service, but need to send tone
signals (for example, for telephone banking),
follow the instructions below. If you have
Touch Tone service, you will not need this
feature to send tone signals.
a
Lift the handset of the external phone.
b
Press # on the control panel of your
machine. Any digits dialed after this will
send tone signals.
When you hang up, the machine will
return to the pulse dialing service.
Fax/Tel mode when the power
key is on
When the machine is in Fax/Tel mode, it will
use the F/T Ring Time
(pseudo/double-ringing) to alert you to pick
up a voice call.
If you are at an extension phone, you'll need
to lift the handset during the F/T Ring Time
and then press # 5 1 between the
pseudo/double rings. If no one is on the line,
or if someone wants to send you a fax, send
the call back to the machine by pressing
l 5 1.

key is off
You can change the default setting of the
On/Off key to Fax Receive:On so that you

Fax/Tel mode does not work when the power
key is off. The machine will not answer
telephone or fax calls and will keep ringing. If
you are at an external or extension phone, lift
the handset and talk. If you hear fax tones,
hold the handset until Easy Receive activates
your machine. If the other party says they
want to send you a fax, activate the machine
by pressing l 5 1.
