Fax Detect

If Fax Detect is On:
The machine can receive a fax automatically,
even if you answer the call. When you see
Receiving on the LCD or hear a click on the
phone line 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 first by lifting the external handset, then
press Start, and then press 2 to receive.
If you answered at an extension telephone
press l51 (l91 for New Zealand).
(See Operation from external or extension
telephones uu page 42.)
Note
• You need to turn the Remote Codes
setting to on to use the Fax Activation
Code l51. (l91 for New Zealand) (See
Using Remote Codes uu page 43.)
• If this feature is set to On, but your
machine does not connect a fax call when
you lift an extension telephone handset,
press the fax receive code l51 (l91 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.
• We do not recommend having a PC plus
fax machine on the same line.
