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 ts

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 nishes. 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 specied by the Rings

to Answer setting. For information about conguring

this setting, see “Step 3: Congure fax settings” on

page 12.

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.

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.

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.

When I send a page through the feeder chute, it tears the paper and the copy is askew on the page. Is there some way to adjust it? Submitted on 9-5-2022 at 00:32
