Will you be using a Unique Ring number for receiving faxes?
Océ uses the term “Unique Ring” but telephone companies may have other names for this service such as
Custom Ringing, RingMaster, Personalized Ring, Teen Ring, Ident-A-Call, and Smart Ring. See
Unique Ring
in
Chapter 7 of the
User’s Guide
for instruction on setting up your machine using this feature.
Will you be using Voice Mail on the same telephone line as your Océ machine?
If you have Voice Mail on the same telephone line as your Océ machine, there is a strong possibility that
Voice Mail and the Océ machine will conflict with each other when receiving incoming calls. See
Voice Mail
in
Chapter 7 of the
User’s Guide
for instructions on setting up your machine using this service.
Will you be using a Telephone Answering Machine on the same telephone line as your Océ machine?
Your external telephone answering machine (TAM) will automatically answer every call. Voice messages are
stored on the external TAM and fax messages are printed. Choose
External TAM
as your answer mode. See
the instructions below.
Will you be using your Océ machine on a dedicated fax line?
Your machine automatically answers every call as a fax. Choose
Fax Only
as your answer mode. See the
instructions below.
Will you be using your Océ machine on the same line as your telephone?
Do you want to receive voice calls and faxes automatically?
The
Fax/Tel
answer mode is used when sharing the Océ machine and your telephone on the same line.
Choose
Fax/Tel
as your answer mode. See the instructions below.
Important Note:
You cannot receive voice messages on either Voice Mail or an answering machine when
choosing the
Fax/Tel
mode.
Do you expect to receive very few faxes?
Choose
Manual
as your answer mode. You control the phone line and must answer every call yourself. See
the instructions below.
