About Receiving Faxes
There are two reception modes: Auto Receive and Manual Receive.
In the Auto Receive mode, reception of a fax from a remote machine begins
automatically.
In the Manual Receive mode, reception of a fax from a remote machine is manual. This
mode is convenient for confirming the sender or using an external telephone to confirm
whether it is a fax before beginning reception.
The Fax Receiving Mode default value can be changed in the System Administration mode. For
information about how to change the default value, refer to "Fax Control" (P.304).
