You must answer all calls yourself. If you
hear fax tones, press Start to begin
receiving the fax, then hang up.
The machine automatically answers every
call as a fax call. You cannot receive a
voice call, but, if you have connected an
External telephone, you can still dial out
and make voice calls. (This setting is
recommended if the fax machine is on its
own dedicated line.)
The machine automatically answers every
call. If the call is a fax, it prints the fax. If
the call is not a fax, it signals you with an
F/T pseudo-ring, different from the phone
company ringing, to alert you to pick up
the call. If you select this setting, you'll
need to set the Ring Delay and F/T Ring
Time features (on the following pages).
