Setup Guide
Before you can begin using your fax, there are some settings that must be made
with the keys on the operation panel. Some of the settings are required for basic
use of your fax, others may or may not be necessary depending on how you
want to use the fax. The procedures for making the settings are described in this
chapter in the order shown below (with the exception of Caller ID).
Required settings:
¨Entering your name and fax/telephone number in the fax
¨Setting the fax to the current date and time
¨Selecting the reception mode
Settings which may be necessary:
¨Distinctive ring: If you subscribe to a distinctive ring service from your
telephone company (this is a service which allows you to use several differ-
ent devices, each with its own phone number and ring pattern, on one line),
you will want to select a ring pattern for your fax.
¨Storing numbers for automatic dialing: Automatic dialing allows you to
dial a full fax or phone number by simply pressing a Rapid Key, or by
pressing the SPEED DIAL key and entering a 2-digit number. To use auto-
matic dialing, you must store the desired fax and phone numbers in the fax.
¨Volume: Adjustment of the volume of the speaker, handset, and ringer.
¨Caller ID: If you subscribe to a Caller ID service from your telephone com-
pany, the fax will display and retain information which the telephone com-
pany provides about each call. To use this feature, set Option Setting 16 as
described in Chapter 9, Optional Settings. For information on using
Caller ID, see Caller ID in Chapter 8.

							Selecting the Reception Mode
Your fax has two modes for receiving incoming calls and faxes:
AUTO mode: In AUTO mode, the fax will automatically answer all calls after
four rings and receive the incoming document.
MANUAL mode: In MANUAL mode, you must answer all calls, including fax
messages, using the fax’s handset or an extension phone connected to the same
line.
If you only intend to receive fax messages on the line connected to your fax ma-
chine, select AUTO mode. In this case, you will probably want to change the
number of rings your fax waits before answering to one or two rings. This is
done by setting Option Setting 2 as described in Chapter 9, Optional Settings.
If you intend to receive both fax messages and voice calls on the line connected
to your fax machine, you can use either AUTO or MANUAL mode. In the case
of AUTO mode, you must answer incoming calls before the fax does, but the
fax will be able to receive fax messages at times when you are unable to answer
personally. For more information on using AUTO and MANUAL modes, see
Chapter 4, Receiving Documents.
Setting the reception mode
Set the mode of reception with the 
RECEPTION MODE key on the panel.
· ·To select AUTO, press the key until
AUTO appears in the display.
· ·To select MANUAL, press the key un-
til MANU appears in the display.

							Distinctive Ring
Distinctive ring is a service offered by some local telephone companies which al-
lows you to use up to four different telephone numbers, each with a different
ring pattern, on your regular single line. If you subscribe to a distinctive ring
service you can set your fax to automatically answer when it detects one of
those ring patterns, allowing you to use the number corresponding to that pattern
as an exclusive fax number.
Important:
· ·To use distinctive ring, you must subscribe to a distinctive ring service from
your local phone company. Do not make this setting if you do not subscribe
to a distinctive ring service.
· ·Your fax may not be compatible with some distinctive ring services.
When using this feature, you must set the reception mode of your fax to AUTO
as described in Selecting the Reception Mode in this chapter. When your des-
ignated fax number is dialed, your fax will automatically answer and begin re-
ception after two rings. Note that other devices on the same line will also ring
until your fax answers. If one of your other numbers is dialed, the fax will ring;
however, it will not answer.
To use distinctive ring, select one of the ring patterns below for your fax by
pressing the panel keys as shown on the following page. The selections are as
follows:
1. RING PATTERN 1: Two short rings.
2. RING PATTERN 2: One short, one long, and one short ring.
3. RING PATTERN 3: Two short rings and one long ring.
4. STANDARD RING: Your standard (normal) ring pattern.
5. OFF SETTING: Answer all ring patterns (this turns distinctive ring
off).
Your fax has been set to 5 at the factory.
