Receiving a fax This part explains how to receive a fax, and the special receiving methods available. Changing the receive modes Your machine is preset to Fax mode at the factory. When you receive a fax, the machine answers the call on a specified number of rings and automatically receives the fax. But if you want to change the Fax mode to another mode, follow the steps below: 1. Press (Fax) on the control panel. 2. Press Receive Mode on the control panel. 3. Press the left/right arrow until the fax reception mode you want appears. • Fax: Answers an incoming fax call and immediately goes into the fax reception mode. • Tel: Receives a fax by pressing On Hook Dial and then Start. You can receive a fax by picking up the handset. • Ans/Fax: Is for when an answering machine attached to your machine. Your machine answers an incoming call, and the caller can leave a message on the answering machine. If the fax machine senses a fax tone on the line, the machine automatically switches to Fax mode to receive the fax. • DRPD: you can receive a call using the Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection (DRPD) feature. Distinctive Ring is a telephone company service which enables an user to use a single telephone line to answer several different telephone numbers. For further details, see "Receiving faxes using DRPD mode" on page 37. 4. Press OK to save your selection. 5. Press Stop/Clear to return to ready mode. • To use the Ans/Fax mode, attach an answering machine to the EXT socket on the back of your machine. • If you do not want other people to view your received documents, you can use secure receiving mode. In this mode, all of the received faxes are stored in memory. For further details, see "Receiving in secure receiving mode" on page 37. Receiving manually in Tel mode You can receive a fax call by pressing On Hook Dial and then pressing Start when you hear a fax tone from the remote machine. The machine begins receiving a fax. If your machine has a handset, you can answer calls using the handset. To change the number of rings, see "Changing the fax setup options" on page 42. Receiving automatically in Answering Machine/Fax mode To use this mode, you must attache an answering machine to the EXT socket on the back of your machine (See "Rear view" on page 19). If the caller leaves a message, the answering machine stores the message as it would normally. If your machine detects a fax tone on the line, it automatically starts to receive the fax. • If you have set your machine to this mode and your answering machine is switched off, or no answering machine is connected to EXT socket, your machine automatically goes into Fax mode after a predefined number of rings. • If your answering machine has a user-selectable ring counter, set the machine to answer incoming calls within 1 ring. • If you are in Tel mode when the answering machine is connected to your machine, you must switch off the answering machine. otherwise, the outgoing message from the answering machine will interrupt your phone conversation. Receiving faxes manually using an extension telephone This feature works best when you are using an extension telephone connected to the EXT socket on the back of your machine. You can receive a fax from someone you are talking to on the extension telephone, without going to the fax machine. When you receive a call on the extension phone and hear fax tones, press the keys *9* on the extension phone. The machine receives the fax. Press the buttons slowly in sequence. If you still hear the fax tone from the remote machine, try pressing *9* once again. *9* is the remote receive code preset at the factory. The first and the last asterisks are fixed, but you can change the middle number to whatever you wish. For details about changing the code, see "Changing the fax setup options" on page 42 Faxing_ 36
