Answering Machine Mode
Your Kodak EasyShare AiO can be set up to receive faxes automatically or manually, depending on your
phone line setup. If you set up the EasyShare AiO to answer faxes automatically, it answers all incoming
calls and receives faxes. If you set it up to answer faxes manually, you must be available to respond in
person to the incoming fax call. For more information on receiving faxes manually, see Receiving a Fax
Manually.
In certain situations you might want to receive faxes manually. For example, if you share a line between
your EasyShare AiO and phone and you do not have distinctive ringing or an answering machine, you will
need to set up the EasyShare AiO to answer fax calls manually. This is because the EasyShare AiO will not
be able to distinguish between fax calls and phone calls.
Refer to the table below to determine how you should set up your EasyShare AiO to answer incoming fax
calls based on your home or office setup. The first column in the table lists the type of phone line
equipment and services. The second column lists the appropriate Auto Answer setting. The third column
describes how the EasyShare AiO will answer incoming calls.
