If you
connect an external answering machine and select to receive faxes
automatically, make sure the
Rings to
Answer setting is correct. The number of rings should be
higher than the number of rings your answering machine is set to
for answering a call.
Note: The
answering machine picks up every call faster than the product, but
the product can detect fax tones and start receiving faxes. If you
answer the phone and hear a fax tone, check that the product has
started receiving the fax, then hang up.
