On Hook Dial

The On Hook Dial function allows you to dial while listening to the tone from the internal speaker.

You can send a fax checking the connection.

This function is not available for the extra G3 line, Internet Fax, IP-Fax, and transmission to e-mail/folder destinations.

Place the original, and then select the scan settings you require.
Press [On Hook].
You will hear a low tone from the internal speaker.
If you want to cancel this operation, press [On Hook] again.
Dial.
The machine immediately dials the destination.
If you make a mistake, press [On Hook] or the [Clear Modes] key, and then try again.
When the line is connected and you hear a high-pitched tone, press the [Start] key.
Transmission starts.
If you want to cancel a transmission, press the [Clear/Stop] key, and then remove the originals.
After transmission, the standby display appears.

This function is unavailable in some countries.
To select a destination from the Address Book, see "Using the Address Book to Specify Destinations".
Press [Vol...] to display the Adjust Sound Volume screen, and then press [Louder] or [Lower] to adjust the volume of the on-hook sound. The volume can also be preprogrammed in the Facsimile Features menu.
If you have the optional handset or an external telephone on the fax machine, you can speak with the other party when you hear a voice. If you hear a voice before pressing the [Start] key, pick up the optional handset or the external telephone and tell the receiver you want to send a fax document (ask them to switch to facsimile mode).
The Facsimile Features menu contains the On Hook Mode Release Time setting, which allows you to specify the time after which On Hook mode is deactivated. See "General Settings".
