2. To use a telephone or answering machine, you 
need a second phone cable. Connect one end 
of the cable to the telephone or answering 
machine, and connect the other end to the 
EXT. port on the back of the product.
In Auto Answer mode, if the incoming call is a fax 
and you pick up the phone or the answering 
machine answers, the product automatically begins 
receiving the fax. If the other party is a caller, the 
phone can be used as normal or a message can be 
left on the answering machine.
Note: Any phone or answering machine must be connected to the EXT. port for your 
product to detect an incoming fax call when the phone is picked up. Epson cannot 
guarantee compatibility with VoIP, cable phone systems, or fiberoptic digital services 
such as FiOS™.
Setting Up Fax Features
Before sending or receiving faxes, you should create a fax header and select the number of 
rings before the fax answers.
Note: To select other settings or use the Epson FAX Utility, see the online 
User’s Guide.
Entering Fax Header Information
You should enter your name and phone number in the fax header before sending faxes so 
that recipients can identify the origin of the fax.
Note: Some fax machines automatically reject incoming faxes that do not include 
header information.
If you leave your product unplugged for a long period of time, the date and time 
settings may get lost. See the online User’s Guide for instructions on resetting them.
