The machine is initially set to be connected with PSTN (Public Switched Telephone Network) lines. 
However, many offices use a central telephone system or Private Automatic Branch Exchange 
(PABX). Your fax can be connected to most types of PABX. The recall facility on the machine 
supports timed break recall only (TBR), PBXS normally can work with this for gaining access to an 
outside line, or for transferring a call to another extension: The feature works when the Tel/R key is 
pressed.
