RX Mode

You can switch the reception mode.

There are three reception modes: [ManualRX], [Fax Only], and [Auto SW].

  • ManualRX

    An external telephone is required to use this machine as a telephone.

    The machine rings when it receives a telephone calls. To receive a fax, manually switch the machine to fax mode.

  • Fax Only

    The machine automatically receives calls in fax mode without ringing.

  • Auto SW

    When the machine receives a call, an external answering machine responds.

    If the machine detects a fax signal during or after the recorded message, it switches automatically to fax mode.

    When receiving a telephone call, the phone-answering machine records the caller's message.

    With certain types of phone-answering machine, this function may not work properly.

    If you select [Auto SW] mode, you must make the following settings also:

    • Ans.Dev. Detect Time

      Set this to between 10 and 30 second(s). The default setting is 20 second(s).

    • Fax Detect Time

      Set this to between 10 and 70 second(s). The default setting is 40 second(s).

Forwarding

You can specify whether to forward a file sent to the machine or whether to forward and print the file.

  • Off

  • On

  • FW&Print

If you select [On] or [FW&Print] mode, you must make the following settings also:

  • Destination (Fax number or E-mail address)

Print Fax Footer

You can specify whether to add a footer when printing received files.

  • On

  • Off

The default setting is “Off”.

Closed Netwrk RX

Use this function to limit incoming senders. The machine only receives faxes from programmed senders, and therefore, it helps you screen out unwanted documents, such as junk mail, and saves wasting fax paper.

  • On

  • Off

The default setting is “Off”.

Fax Tray Prty.

With the same size of paper loaded into multiple trays, you can make the machine use one tray for one function and another tray for another function.

For example, you may load white A4 paper into tray 1 to use when making copies, and yellow A4 paper into tray 2 to use when printing received faxes. You can then easily identify for which purpose paper has been output.

  • Tray 1

  • Tray 2

  • Bypass Tray

  • Auto

If you enable this function, received documents are printed on the sheet that has the highest priority.

The default setting is “Tray 1”.
