Receiving Faxes Automatically (Auto Answer)

To receive and print faxes automatically, you can turn on Auto Answer mode. To turn Auto Answer mode

on or off, press the Fax button, press the Menu button, then select Fax Settings > Send/Receive

Setup > Auto Answer.

If an answering machine is connected, make sure the product's Rings to Answer setting is set higher

than the number of rings your answering machine is set to answer a call. For example, if the answering

machine is set to pick up on the fourth ring, set the product to pick up on the fifth ring or later.

If a telephone is connected, and you use it to answer a call that turns out to be a fax, wait until the

product's LCD screen displays a message that a connection has been made before hanging up.
