2. To use a telephone or answering machine, you need a second phone cable. Connect one end of the cable to the telephone or answering machine, and connect the other end to the EXT. port on the back of the Artisan 800 Series. When you receive a call, if the other party is a fax and you pick up the phone or the answering machine answers, the Artisan 800 Series automatically begins receiving the transmission. If the other party is a caller, the phone can be used as normal or a message can be left on the answering machine. Note: Your phone or answering machine must be connected to the EXT. port (not to a wall jack) for the Artisan 800 Series to detect incoming fax calls properly. It's a good idea to set the Artisan 800 Series to pick up calls after your answering machine; to adjust the number of rings after which the Artisan 800 Series answers, press the Home button and select Setup, select Fax Setting, select Communication, and select Rings to Answer. Setting Up Fax Features Before sending or receiving faxes, you may want to create a fax header, select your fax preferences, and set up a speed dial list of frequently used fax numbers. ■ "Entering Fax Header Information" on page 20 ■ "Select Scan and Print Settings" on page 21 ■ "Setting Up a Speed Dial List" on page 22 Note: To change other settings or print fax reports, see the on-screen Epson Information Center.
