Reception Behavior

The machine behavior differs depending on the
specified reception mode.
Your machine is set by factory default to [Fax
Ready Mode] so that it automatically receives
faxes. If you have changed the fax reception
mode, see the following descriptions for the
machine behavior.
When the machine is receiving faxes, the <DATA
IN MEMORY> indicator is lit. The sender
information is displayed on the display screen.
Even if the reception is finished, the indicator
remains lit while the data is stored in memory.
Memo
 If the memory overflows while the machine is receiving
data, the reception is cancelled. If this happens, ask the
sender to resend the fax.
When Receiving Calls and Faxes
(Tel/Fax Ready Mode)
When the machine is set to [Tel/Fax Ready
Mode], you can receive calls and faxes. You
must connect an external telephone in advance
to receive calls.
Reference

to "Connecting a Telephone Line" P. 59.
