Setting Up Your Printer If neither of these configurations is available to you, you cannot accept faxes on your printer in the Fax Auto-Answer mode. You can accept them manually, though. See "Manually receiving fax" on page 36. Using an answering machine with the ESP 9 All-in-One fax If you use an answering machine to retrieve and record messages from telephone callers when you are not available to pick up the handset, you can set up your telephone to work with both the answering machine and the printer. However, because answering machines cannot recognize fax calls or record fax signals for conversion later to a fax printout, care must be taken if you plan to accept fax calls automatically. Before using your printer to accept faxes automatically when you are also using an answering machine, make sure the answering machine is connected correctly to the printer (see the illustrtations that follow). Make sure the answering machine is set to answer calls before the printer.
