TAD (For FAX-920 and MFC-925)––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, it prints the fax.
The TAD setting works only with an external telephone answering device
(TAD). Ring Delay and F/T Ring Time do not work in this setting.
TAD (For FAX-930 and FAX-940 E-mail)––The FAX-930/940 E-mail
provides you with a built-in digital Message Manager for fax and voice.
When you set the machine to answer calls, it will record up to 15 minutes
of messages. For more information about Message Manager operation,
please see chapter 9.
