Advanced receiving 
operations

Operation from extension 
telephones

If you answer a fax call on an extension 
telephone, or an external telephone 
connected to the EXT. jack of the MFC, you 
can make your MFC take the call by using the 
Fax Receive Code. When you press the Fax 
Receive Code 

51

, the MFC starts to 

receive the fax. (See 

Easy Receive

 on page 

4-3.)

If the MFC answers a voice call and 
pseudo/double-rings for you to take over, use 
the Telephone Answer Code 

#51

 to take the 

call at an extension phone. (See 

Setting the 

F/T Ring Time (Fax/Tel mode only)

 on page 

4-3.)

If you answer a call and no one is on the line, 
you should assume that youā€™re receiving a 
manual fax.

ā– 

Press 

51

 and wait for the chirp or until 

the MFCā€™s LCD displays 

Receiving

, and 

then hang up.

For Fax/Tel mode only

When the MFC is in Fax/Tel mode, it will use 
the F/T Ring Time (pseudo/double-ringing) to 
alert you to pick up a voice call.

Lift the external telephone's handset, and 
then press 

Hook 

to answer.

If youā€™re at an extension phone, youā€™ll need to 
lift the handset during the F/T Ring Time and 
then press 

#51

 between the pseudo/double 

rings. If no one is on the line, or if someone 
wants to send you a fax, send the call back to 
the MFC by pressing 

51

.

Using a cordless external 
handset

If your cordless telephone is connected to the 
EXT. jack of the MFC and you typically carry 
the cordless handset elsewhere, it is easier to 
answer calls during the Ring Delay. If you let 
the MFC answer first, you will have to go to 
the MFC so you can press 

Hook

 to transfer 

the call to the cordless handset.

Changing the remote codes

The preset Fax Receive Code is 

51

. The 

preset Telephone Answer Code is

. If you 

want to, you can replace them with your own 
codes.
