Answering machine mode
Your Kodak EasyShare AiO can be set up to receive faxes with or without an answering machine
connected. Refer to the table below to determine how you should set up your EasyShare AiO to answer
incoming fax calls based on your home or office set-up. The first column in the table lists the type of phone
line equipment and services. The second column lists the appropriate Answering Machine Mode setting.
The third column describes how the EasyShare AiO will answer incoming calls.

Rings to answer
You can specify how many rings should occur before your Kodak EasyShare AiO automatically answers an
incoming call (default = 4). If you have a dedicated fax line, set the Rings to Answer to 1 or 2. If you have a
shared line for voice/modem and fax, set the Rings to answer to 3, 4 or 5. This setting only applies if
Answering Machine Mode is set to OFF.
When Answering Machine mode is disabled, Rings to Answer applies and your AiO printer answers the
call. When your AiO printer detects a fax tone, it receives the fax. When a voice call is received (no fax
tone), the call is ignored.

The EasyShare AiO will not automatically answer calls.
Instead, the answering machine will answer the call and
the EasyShare AiO will monitor the line. If the
EasyShare AiO detects fax tones, the EasyShare AiO
will receive the fax. If the call is a voice call, the
EasyShare AiO ignores the call.
This is the recommended default setting if you have an
answering machine. Make sure the answering machine
is set up properly with the EasyShare AiO.
