When you press the Fax Receive Code 5 1 , the FAX/ MFC starts to receive a fax. If the FAX/MFC answers a voice call and double-rings for you to take over, use the Telephone Answer Code 5 1 to take the call at an extension phone. If you answer a call, and no one is on the line, assume you're receiving a fax. At the FAX/MFC phone, press Start , then hang up. At an extension phone, press 5 1 , wait for fax receiving tones (chirps), then hang up. At an external phone, press 5 1 and wait for the phone to be disconnected (the screen displays RECEIVE) before you hang up. (Your caller will have to press Start to send the fax.) For FAX/TEL Mode Only When the FAX/MFC is in FAX/TEL mode, it will use the F/T Ring Time (double ringing) to alert you to a voice call. If you're at the FAX/MFC, you can lift the handset to answer. If you're at an extension phone, you'll need to lift the handset during the F/T Ring Time and press 5 1 between the double rings. If no one is on the line, or if someone wants to send you a fax, send the call back to the FAX/ MFC by pressing 5 1 . Changing Remote Codes Remote Codes might not work with some telephone systems.
