Fax Detect

If Fax Detect is On:
Fax Detect is turned On as default.
The machine receives a fax call
automatically, even if you answer the call.
When you see Receiving on the LCD or
when you hear "chirps" through the handset
you are using, just replace the handset. Your
machine will do the rest.
If Fax Detect is Off:
If you are at the machine and answer a fax
call by lifting the handset, press Mono Start
or Colour Start, then press 2 to receive the
fax.
If you answered at an extension telephone,
press l 5 1 (l 9 1 for New Zealand). (See
Operation from extension telephones
on page 57.)
Note
• If this feature is set to On, but your
machine does not connect a fax call when
you lift an extension or external telephone
handset, press the remote activation code
l 5 1 (l 9 1 for New Zealand).
• If you send faxes from a computer on the
same telephone line and the machine
intercepts them, set Fax Detect to Off.
