If you pick up the extension phone and hear fax tones, enter the code. It is preset to *9* at the factory. Auto Reduction When receiving a fax containing pages as long as or longer than the paper loaded in the paper tray, the printer can reduce the size of the original to fit the size of the paper loaded in the printer.
