Telephone/Fax When the printer receives an incoming fax, the external telephone rings for the time specified in
Auto Rec TEL/FAX , and then the printer automatically receives a fax. If an incoming call is
not a fax, the printer beeps from the internal speaker indicating that the call is a telephone call.
Ans Machine/Fax The printer can share a telephone line with an answering machine. In this mode, the printer will
monitor the fax signal and pick up the line if there are fax tones. If the phone communication is
using serial transmission in your country (such as Germany, Sweden, Denmark, Austria, Belgium,
Italy, France and Switzerland), this mode is not supported.
DRPD Before using the Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection (DRPD) option, a distinctive ring service
must be installed on your telephone line by the telephone company. After the telephone company
has provided a separate number for faxing with a distinctive ring pattern, configure the fax setup
to monitor for that specific ring pattern.
