TEL/FAX Mode When the printer receives an incoming fax, the external telephone rings for

automatically receives a fax. If an incoming call is not a fax, the printer beeps
from the internal speaker indicating that the call is a telephone call.
Ans/FAX Mode The printer can share a telephone line with an answering machine. In this
mode, the printer will monitor the fax signal and pick up the line if there are
fax tones.
DRPD Mode Before using the Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection (DRPD) option, distinctive
ring service must be installed on your telephone line by the telephone
company. After the telephone company has provided a separate number for
faxing with a distinctive ring pattern, configure the fax setup to monitor for that
specific ring pattern.
