For
Use this function if you expect to receive many fax messages
and few phone calls. The machine automatically answers
every call. If the call is a fax, it prints the fax. If the call is not
a fax, it signals you with an F/T pseudo-ring, different from the
phone company ringing, to alert you to pick up the call. If you
select this setting, you'll need to set the Ring Delay and F/T
Ring Time features (on the following pages).
This is the only setting in which you can use an external
answering machine. Your telephone answering device is
connected to your machine, and answers every call. Once the
external telephone answering device (TAD) answers, the
machine listens for fax tones. If it detects fax tones, fax
messages are printed.
