Operation from extension telephones

If you answer a fax call on an extension telephone, or an external
telephone, you can make your MFC take the call by using the
Remote Activation Code. When you press the Remote Activation
5 1
Code , the MFC starts to receive a fax.
(See Fax Detect on page 5-6.)
If the MFC answers a voice call and pseudo/double-rings for you to
take over, use the Remote Deactivation Code
at an extension phone. (See Setting the F/T Ring Time (FAX/TEL
mode only) on page 5-5.)
If you answer a call and no one is on the line, you should assume that
you're receiving a manual fax.

handset during the F/T Ring Time and then press
