Set the number of rings on the answering machine to less than 4. qThis will allow the answering machine to answer the call first. Record a greeting message on the answering machine. Example: �This is (your name, business and/or telephone number). We are unable to answer the phone right now. To send a fax, start transmission. To leave a message, please speak after the beep. Thank you.� qWe recommend you record your message around 10 seconds long and not to pause for more than 4 seconds during the message. Otherwise, both machines will not function correctly. Activate the answering machine.

Set the receive mode of the fax machine to TEL mode (p. 38) or FAX ONLY mode (p. 39). qIf you set to FAX ONLY mode, set the ring count in FAX ONLY mode to �5 EXT.TAM� (feature #06 on page 50). Using FAX ONLY mode will allow you to receive faxes if the answering machine is full. Check the remote access code of the answering machine and program the same code into the remote operation ID of the fax machine. See feature #12 on page 51.
