You can set the printer to receive faxes automatically (set Auto Answer to On) or manually (set Auto
Answer to Off).
•
If you want to receive faxes automatically, then set the printer to pick up on a specified number of rings.

Note: If you subscribe to a distinctive ring service, then make sure that you set the correct ring pattern for
the printer. Otherwise, the printer does not receive faxes even if you have set it to receive faxes
automatically.
