Operation from extension
telephones
If you answer a fax call on an extension
telephone, or an external telephone
connected to the EXT. jack of the machine,
you can make your machine take the call by
using the Fax Receive Code. When you
press the Fax Receive Code l51 the
machine starts to receive the fax. (See Easy
receive on page 41.)
If the machine answers a voice call and
pseudo/double-rings for you to take over, use
the Telephone Answer Code #51 to take the
call at an extension telephone. (See F/T ring
time on page 41.)
If you answer a call and no one is on
the line:
You should assume that you're receiving a
manual fax.
Press l51 and wait for the chirp or until the
machine's LCD shows Receiving, and then
hang up.

For Fax/Tel mode only

When the machine is in Fax/Tel mode, it will
use the F/T Ring Time (pseudo/double-
ringing) to alert you to pick up a voice call.
Lift the external telephone's handset, and
then press Hook to answer.
If you're at an extension telephone, you will
need to lift the handset during the F/T Ring
Time and then press #51 between the
pseudo/double rings. If no one is on the line,
or if someone wants to send you a fax, send
the call back to the machine by pressing l51.

Using a non-Brother cordless
external handset
If your non-Brother cordless telephone is
connected to the EXT. jack of the machine

(see page 50) and you typically carry the
cordless handset elsewhere, it is easier to
answer calls during the Ring Delay.
If you let the machine answer first, you will
have to go to the machine so you can press
Hook to transfer the call to the cordless
handset.
