To receive faxes when you hear fax tones
If you have a telephone line that receives both fax and telephone calls, and you hear fax tones when
you answer the telephone, you can start the receiving process in one of two ways:
●
If you are close to the all-in-one, press
Start Fax
on the control panel.
●
When you answer any telephone connected to the line (an extension telephone) and hear fax
tones, the all-in-one should begin answering the call automatically. If not, press 1-2-3 in
sequence on the telephone keypad (in tone-dialing mode only), listen for fax transmission
sounds, and then hang up.
NOTE
In order for the second method to work, the extension telephone setting must be set
to YES. See
Making an extension telephone available to receive faxes
to check or change the
setting.
