Dedicated phone line

Use this section if you plan on using the following type

of phone line for the fax:

• Dedicated phone line (no other devices, such as

a phone or answering machine, share the line).

• Dedicated phone line without devices sharing the

line but with a subscription to a distinctive ring

service.

• Private Branch Exchange (PBX) or an Integrated

Services Digital Network (ISDN) line. For more

information about PBX and ISDN lines, see the

onscreen user guide on the Starter CD.

NOTE: You cannot receive faxes automatically if you

have a voice mail service at the same phone number

you use for fax calls. You must receive faxes manually;

this means you must be available to respond in person

to incoming fax calls. If you want to receive faxes

automatically instead, contact your telephone company

to subscribe to a distinctive ring service, or to obtain

a separate phone line for faxing.

Set up the device to answer incoming calls manually.

Press the Auto Answer button until the light is off.

1. Unplug any telephone devices from the phone jack

where you are connecting the device.

2. Connect the phone cord that came with the device

between the 1-LINE port on the device and the

phone jack.

3. If you subscribe to a distinctive ring service, change

the Answer Ring Pattern setting to the pattern that

has been assigned to your fax number by the

telephone company, for example, double rings or

triple rings.
For information on changing this setting, see the

onscreen user guide on the Starter CD.

NOTE: Your device is factory-set to answer all ring

patterns. If you do not set the correct ring pattern

assigned to your fax number by the telephone company,

your device might answer both voice calls and fax calls,

or it might not answer at all.
