Setting the F/T (Fax/Tel) Ring Time (Fax/Tel Mode Only)
You need to determine how long the MFC will give its special F/T pseudo-ring when you have a
voice call. This ringing happens after the initial ringing from the phone company. Only the MFC
rings, for 20, 30, 40, or 70 seconds; no other phones on the same line ring the special F/T pseudo
ring. However, you can answer the call on any extension phone on a separate wall socket on the same
line as the MFC. (See Operation from an External or Extension Telephone in Chapter 7.)

Press
or

Now, when a call comes in and the MFC is set to Fax/Tel Mode, all phones on this line will ring the
number of times you selected in Ring Delay.
You can let the MFC pick up and detect if it's a fax or voice call. If it's a fax call, the MFC prints
the fax. If it's a voice call, the MFC signals you with an F/T pseudo-ring for the length of time you
selected in F/T Ring Time.
Even if the caller hangs up during the F/T pseudo-ringing, the MFC continues the
F/T pseudo-ringing for the set time.
Please note that some faxes cannot be received automatically in Fax/Tel mode, because some fax
machines do not send the standard Group 3 calling tone ("CNG").
This MFC does not re-generate ringing conditions to any extension telephones.
Any such extension telephones will only ring during the period set on ring delay.
