Your machine has three modes for receiving incoming calls and faxes:

● AUTO mode:

Select this mode when you only want to receive faxes on your telephone line. The machine will automatically 
answer all calls and receive incoming faxes.

● MAN. mode: 

This is the most convenient mode for receiving phone calls if you have an extension phone. To have true manual 
mode, the machine must be set to not answer while in MAN. mode. You can also receive faxes; however, all calls 
must first be answered by picking up the receiver on the extension phone.

● A.M. mode:

Select this mode when an answering machine is connected to the machine and you want the answering machine 
to answer all calls. This allows you to receive both voice messages and faxes while you are out.

To select the reception mode, press the [RECEPTION MODE] key until the desired reception mode appears in the 
display.

For more information on reception modes, refer to RECEIVING FAXES (p.61).

external telephone will ring one time when 
auto reception is set to 0 rings.

The number of rings before the machine answers in MANUAL mode can also be set. 
If you do not want the machine to answer at all in MANUAL Mode, select "0" in Step 4 below.

rings you would like to 
use (0 to 9).

The machine will automatically reattempt transmission when a transmission is not successful because the line is 
busy or a communication error occurs. This setting is used to select the number of recall attempts that will be made.

You can select the number of recall attempts made when the line is busy. 
If "00" is entered, the machine will not make any recall attempts.

Enter the number of 
recall times ("00" to "10").

Press the [CLEAR ALL] 
key (

) to exit.

• If a transmission is still not successful after the set number of recall attempts is made, a report will 

print and the document will be cleared from memory.

• If a communication error occurs because the memory becomes full during transmission, no recall 

attempts will be made.

• Recall attempts for a direct transmission will only be made when the RSPF is used. Recall attempts 

will not be made when the document glass is used.

• When the machine is waiting to make a recall attempt for a direct transmission, other operations 

such as storing a transmission or selecting a function cannot be performed.
