Connections

The external TAD must be plugged into the back of the FAX/MFC, into the jack
labeled EXT. Your FAX/MFC cannot work properly if you plug the TAD into a wall
jack.
1
Plug the telephone line cord from the wall jack into the back of the FAX/MFC, in the
jack labeled LINE.
2
Plug the telephone line cord from your TAD into the back of the FAX/MFC, in the
jack labeled EXT. (Make sure this cord is connected to the TAD at the TAD's
telephone line jack (not to telephone set jack).)
3
Set your external TAD to four rings or less. (The FAX/MFC's Ring Delay setting does
not apply.)
4
Record the outgoing message (see below).
5
Set the TAD to answer calls.

See Message Storage (Function/Set, 8, 1) to VOICE:EXT.

Outgoing Message (OGM)

Timing is important in recording this message. The message sets up the ways to handle
both manual and automatic fax reception.
1
Record 5 seconds of silence at the beginning of your message. (This allows your FAX/
MFC time to listen for the fax CNG tones of automatic transmissions before they
stop.)
2
Limit your speaking to 20 seconds.
3
End your 20-second message by giving your Fax Receive Code for people sending
manual faxes. For example:
"After the beep, leave a message or send a fax by pressing

Connecting an External Telephone

Your FAX/MFC is equipped with a handset that you can use as a regular phone.
However, you can also connect a separate telephone (or telephone answering device)
directly to your FAX/MFC.
Connect the modular plug on the telephone's line cord to the jack labeled EXT. on the
back of the FAX/MFC.
Whenever this phone (or TAD) is in use, the screen displays EXT. TEL IN USE, and,
if the FAX/MFC handset is lifted, an alarm sounds. To disconnect the call and switch
to the FAX/MFC, press Speaker Phone.
