Faxing

Your machine is preset to Fax mode at the factory. When you receive a fax, 

the machine answers the call on a specified number of rings and 

automatically receives the fax. 
To change the number of rings, 

see page 51.

You can receive a fax call by pressing

 and then pressing 

when you hear a fax tone from the remote machine.

The machine begins receiving a fax and returns to ready mode when the 

reception is completed.

This features works best when you are using an extension telephone 

connected to the EXT socket on the back of your machine. You can receive 

a fax from someone you are talking to on the extension telephone without 

going to the fax machine.
When you receive a call on the extension phone and hear fax tones, press 

the keys *9* on the extension phone. The machine receives the fax.
Press the buttons slowly in sequence. If you still hear the fax tone from the 

remote machine, try pressing *9* once again.
*9* is the remote receive code preset at the factory. The first and the last 

asterisks are fixed, but you can change the middle number to whatever you 
wish. For details about changing the code, see page 

To use this mode, you must attach an answering machine to the EXT socket 

on the back of your machine. 
If the caller leaves a message, the answering machine stores the message 

as it would normally. If your machine detects a fax tone on the line, it 

automatically starts to receive the fax.

Distinctive Ring is a telephone company service which enables an user to 

use a single telephone line to answer several different telephone numbers. 

The particular number someone uses to call you is identified by different 

ringing patterns, which consist of various combinations of long and short 

ringing sounds. This feature is often used by answering services who 

answer telephones for many different clients and need to know which 

number someone is calling in on to properly answer the phone.
Using the Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection (DRPD) feature, your fax 

machine can learn the ring pattern you designate to be answered by the fax 

machine. Unless you change it, this ringing pattern will continue to be 

recognized and answered as a fax call, and all other ringing patterns will be 

forwarded to the extension telephone or answering machine plugged into 

the EXT socket. You can easily suspend or change DRPD at any time.
Before using the DRPD option, Distinctive Ring service must be installed on 

your telephone line by the telephone company. To set up DRPD, you will 

need another telephone line at your location, or someone available to dial 

your fax number from outside. 
To set up the DRPD mode:

Press

.

Press Menu until Fax Setup appears on the bottom line of the display 

and press OK.

Press the left/right arrow until Receiving appears and press OK.

Press the left/right arrow until DRPD Mode appears and press OK. 
Waiting Ring

 appears on the display.

Call your fax number from another telephone. It is not necessary to 

place the call from a fax machine. 

When your machine begins to ring, do not answer the call. The machine 

requires several rings to learn the pattern. 
When the machine completes learning, the display shows Completed 
DRPD Setup

. If the DRPD setup fails, Error DRPD Ring appears. 

Press OK when DRPD Mode appears and start over from step 4.

Press Stop/Clear to return to ready mode.

You may need to prevent your received faxes from being accessed by 

unauthorized people. You can turn on secure receiving mode to restrict 

printing of received faxes when the machine is unattended. In secure 

receiving mode, all incoming faxes go into memory. When the mode is 

deactivated, any stored faxes are printed.

•

If you have set your machine to Ans/Fax mode and your 

answering machine is switched off, or no answering machine is 

connected to EXT socket, your machine automatically goes into 
Fax

 mode after a predefined number of rings.

•

If your answering machine has a user-selectable ring counter, set 

the machine to answer incoming calls within 1 ring. 

•

If you are in Tel mode (manual reception) when the answering 

machine is connected to your machine, you must switch off the 

answering machine, or the outgoing message from the answering 

machine will interrupt your phone conversation.

•

DRPD must be set up again if you re-assign your fax number, or 

connect the machine to another telephone line.

•

After DRPD has been set up, call your fax number again to verify 

that the machine answers with a fax tone. Then have a call placed 

to a different number assigned to that same line to be sure the call 

is forwarded to the extension telephone or answering machine 

plugged into the EXT socket.
