Faxing
Setting Up Distinctive Ringtone Pattern Detection
If you have one line that serves as both a fax and phone line, you can configure the printer to
distinguish an incoming fax from an incoming phone call based on the ringtone pattern. When an
incoming fax is detected, the printer will process it as a fax.
Note:
There are four pre-assigned ringtone patterns for fax. Which one you use depends on your
location and PBX (private branch exchange) provider. If you do not know which ringtone to use,
contact your PBX provider to determine which pattern is used for fax numbers.

1. On the printer control panel, press the Fax button.
2. Press the Down Arrow button to go to Fax Default Setup and then press the OK button.
3. Arrow down to Receive Option and press OK.
