Once the TAD answers, the fax machine listens for fax tones. If it detects fax tones, it prints the fax. The TAD setting works only with an external telephone answering device (TAD); it does not work with telephone company voice mail. Ring Delay and F/T Ring Time do not work in this setting. 09/06 15:25 FAX Function Tel-index Resolution Mode Q.
