Set up and use fax
Receive faxes
You can receive faxes automatically or manually.
Note: If you receive a legal-size or larger fax and
the printer is not currently set to use legal-size
paper, the printer reduces the fax so that it fits
on the paper that is loaded. If you have disabled
the Automatic Reduction feature, the printer prints
the fax on two pages.
If you are copying a document when a fax arrives,
the fax is stored in the printer's memory until the
copying finishes. As a result, the number of fax pages
that can be stored in memory might be reduced.
Receive a fax automatically
If you turn on the Auto Answer option (the default
setting) from the printer's control panel, the printer
automatically answers incoming calls and receives
faxes after the number of rings specified by the Rings
to Answer setting. For information about configuring
this setting, see "Step 3: Configure fax settings" on
page 12.
Receive a fax manually
When you are on the phone, the person you are
speaking with can send you a fax while you are still
connected (called "manual faxing").
You can receive faxes manually from a phone that is
connected to the printer (through the 2-EXT port) or a
phone that is on the same phone line (but not directly
connected to the printer).
1. Make sure the printer is turned on and you have
paper loaded in the main tray.
2. Remove any originals from the document feeder
tray.
3. Set the Rings to Answer setting to a high number
to allow you to answer the incoming call before
the printer answers. Or turn off the Auto Answer
setting so that the printer does not automatically
answer incoming calls.

Faxes and your voice mail service
If you subscribe to a voicemail service on the
same phone line that you will use for faxing,
you cannot receive faxes automatically. Instead,
you must receive make sure the Auto Answer
setting is turned off so that you can receive
faxes manually. Be sure you initiate the manual
fax before the voicemail picks up the line.
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.
4. If you are currently on the phone with the sender,
instruct the sender to press Start on their fax
machine.
5. When you hear fax tones from a sending fax
machine, do the following:
a. Touch Fax, and then select Start Black or Start
Color.
b. After the printer begins to receive the fax, you can
hang up the phone or remain on the line. The
phone line is silent during fax transmission.
