Operation from extension telephones
If you answer a fax call on an extension telephone, or an external
telephone in the EXT. jack, 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 a fax.
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
If you answer a call and no one is on the line, you should assume that
you’re receiving a manual fax.

At an extension phone (on a separate telephone wall jack/phone
socket), press

, wait for fax-receiving tones (chirps), and
then hang up.

answer.
If you’re at an extension phone, you’ll need to lift the handset during

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