Remote Retrieval
You can call your FAX/MFC from any FAX/MFC using touch tone and use a Remote
Access Code and other button presses to retrieve fax messages. Cut out the Remote
Retrieval Access Card on the last page of this manual and keep it in your wallet as an
aid. (See Changing Remote Retrieval Access Code, page 8-2.)
Using Remote Retrieval Access Code
1
Dial your fax number from a FAX/MFC using touch tone.
2
When your FAX/MFC answers and beeps, immediately enter your Remote Retrieval
Access Code (1 5 9
).
3
The FAX/MFC signals the kinds of messages received:
1 long beep—Fax message(s)
No long beeps—No messages
4
The FAX/MFC then prompts you with two short beeps to enter a command. If you
wait longer than 30 seconds to enter a command, the FAX/MFC hangs up. If you enter
an invalid command, the FAX/MFC beeps three times.
5
Press
9 0
to reset the FAX/MFC when you finish.
6
Hang up.
Do not use the same digits that appear in your Remote Activation Code or
Deactivation Code.
If your FAX/MFC is set to MANUAL mode, you can access your machine remotely
by phoning it and letting it ring for about 50 seconds. Your FAX/MFC will answer
the phone after 50 seconds of ringing, and you then have 30 seconds to enter your
Remote Access Code.
