Send and Receive Fax Machines 9
If your business has high-volume fax traffic, you can set up two fax machines, one that only sends
and the other that only receives (see Figure 9-10).
Figure 9-10. Send and Receive Fax Machines
When you send a fax, an outside line is automatically selected. Incoming fax calls on the fax line
are answered automatically by fax 2. If a fax comes in on a line other than line A, you can transfer
the call to fax 2. If you have programmed a Fax Management button, you can transfer a call to the
fax machine with a single touch, as well as monitor the status of the fax machine. If fax 1 is set for
Delayed Ring on line A, fax 1 can pick up fax transmissions when fax 2 does not answer.
Programming Fax 1 (Send—Ext. X) 9
To program the send fax machine:
1. Do one of the following:
■ If extension X is a key extension, use Line Assignment (#301) to assign one or more
lines to extension X (including line A).
■ If extension X is a pooled extension, use Pool Line Assignment (#207) to remove line A
from all pools. Then use Pool Extension Assignment (#314) to assign pools to extension
X. Also use Line Assignment (#301) to assign line A and any other individual lines to
extension X.
2. Do one of the following:
■ If extension X is a key extension, set Automatic Line Selection for extension X to select
outside lines first (line A selected last).
■ If extension X is a pooled extension, set Automatic Line Selection for extension X to
select pools and outside lines first (line A selected last).
3. Set Line Ringing for line A at extension X to Delayed Ring; set all other lines and pools to No
Ring.
