9-19
If you are using PARTNER Messaging or the PARTNER MAIL system’s Automated Attendant
Service, you can program PARTNER Messaging or PARTNER MAIL to transfer fax calls to the fax
extension or a group of fax extensions automatically. For PARTNER Mail, use Fax Machine
Extensions (#601) to identify fax extensions. If you have multiple fax machines, put all of the fax
extensions into a single Hunt Group (any group 1–6) using Hunt Group Extensions (#505).
You can use dialing restrictions to restrict calling activity on a fax machine. For example, you can
use Outgoing Call Restriction (#401) to restrict the fax machine to local calls only.
For information on how to program PARTNER Messaging to transfer fax calls to the fax extension
or a group of fax extensions automatically, see the PARTNER Messaging Installation,
Programming, and Troubleshooting Online Guide or the PARTNER Messaging System Manager’s
Quick Reference.
Single Fax Machine
9
The single fax machine setup (shown in Figure 9-8 ) is good for moderate traffic. The fax machine
has its own line (line A), the number of which is published as the fax number. (The fax line can be
used by other telephones when all other lines are busy.) The fax machine is connected to its own
extension (extension X).
Figure 9-8. Single Fax Machine
The fax machine automatically answers all calls that come in on the fax line. If a call comes in on
another line, you can transfer the call to the fax extension. If you have programmed a Fax
Management button, you can transfer a call to the fax machine with a single touch, as well as
monitor the status of the fax machine.
When you send a fax, the system automatically selects the fax line.
