Using The Fax Machine's Notify Feature; Setting Up Fax Machines - AT&T PARTNER Installation And Use Manual

You might be on a call and the person to whom you are speaking has a
fax machine connected to his or her phone and wants to fax you
something. You can receive the fax by transferring the call to the fax
extension. Tell the other party to wait until the fax tone sounds before
pressing the fax machine's Start button.
To transfer the call to the fax extension:
On a system phone, press [
number or press an intercom Auto Dial button set up for the fax machine.
When the fax machine answers, hang up.
On a standard phone, rapidly press and release the switchhook to place
the call on hold, then dial the fax extension number and hang up.

Using the Fax Machine's Notify Feature

Some AT&T fax machines (like the AT&T 5300, 5350, 9025 Plus, and 9035 Plus)
have a feature called Notify. After such a machine receives a fax call, it
automatically dials a number and plays a recorded message, such as, "You
have just received a fax." If you need to know exactly when a fax comes in, or if
your fax machine is located in an isolated part of your building, you can use
Notify in one of two ways:
Set up the fax machine to make a ringing or voice-signaled call to another
extension. (Include [ ] plus the extension number for a voice-signaled
call.)
Set up the fax machine to group page all system phones (by dialing [ ]
[ ]) and then play the recorded message.

For the above examples, set up the fax machine extension's Automatic Line
Selection for "intercom first," followed by whatever outside lines you want to
assign to it. If the machine has an auto dial feature, include a 9 and a pause
before each auto dial number. When manually making a call, dial [
outside line.
