Some receive modes answer automatically
(Fax Only and Fax/Tel). You may want to
change the ring delay before using these
modes. (See Ring Delay on page 47.)
Fax Only 6

every call as a fax call.
Fax/Tel 6
Fax/Tel mode helps you automatically
manage incoming calls, by recognizing
whether they are fax or voice calls and
handling them in one of the following ways:
Faxes will be automatically received.
Voice calls will start the F/T Ring to tell you
to pick up the line. The F/T Ring is a fast
pseudo/double-ring made by your
machine.
(Also see F/T Ring Time (Fax/Tel mode only)
on page 47 and Ring Delay on page 47.)

Manual mode turns off all automatic
answering functions unless you are using the
Distinctive Ring feature or an external
telephone answering device (TAD).
To receive a fax in manual mode, press
Speaker Phone or lift the handset of the

hear fax tones (short repeating beeps), press
Black Start or Color Start and choose
Receive. You can also use the Easy
Receive feature to receive faxes by lifting a
handset on the same line as the machine.
