Block or unblock fax numbers NOTE: Faxing blocking is only supported where the caller ID feature is supported.

Faxes from blocked fax numbers appear in the fax activity log with a "discarded" designation. You can unblock blocked fax numbers individually or all at one time. NOTE: The sender of a blocked fax is not notified that the fax failed. 1.

Set the number of rings-to-answer When the answer mode is set to Automatic, the product rings-to-answer setting determines the number of times the telephone rings before the product answers an incoming call. If the product is connected to a telephone line that receives both fax and voice calls (a shared line) and that also uses an answering machine, you might need to adjust the rings-to-answer setting. The number of ringsto-answer for the product must be greater than the rings-to-answer on the answering machine. This allows the answering machine to answer the incoming call and record a message if it is a voice call. When the answering machine answers the call, the product listens to the call and automatically answers it if it detects fax tones. The default setting for rings-to-answer is five for all countries/regions. Use the following table to determine the number of rings-to-answer to use. Type of telephone line Dedicated fax line (receiving only fax calls) One line with two separate numbers and a ring-pattern service Recommended rings-to-answer setting Set to a number of rings within the range shown in the control panel display. (The minimum and maximum number of rings allowed varies by country/region.) One or two rings. (If you have an answering machine or computer voicemail for the other telephone number, make sure that the product is set to a greater number of rings than the answering system. Also, use the distinctive-ring feature to differentiate between voice and fax calls.) 100 Chapter 8 Fax ENWW
