Fax/Tel mode 7
When the machine is in Fax/Tel mode, it will
use the F/T Ring Time (pseudo/double-
ringing) to alert you to pick up a voice call.
(For MFC-665CW) If you are at the machine,
you can lift the handset or press Speaker
Phone to answer.
(For MFC-440CN) Lift the external
telephone’s handset, and then press Hook
on the machine to answer.
Fax/Tel mode in Power Save
condition 7
(For MFC-440CN)
Fax/Tel mode does not work in the power
save condition. The machine will not answer
telephone or fax calls and will keep ringing. If
you are at an external or extension phone, lift
the handset and talk. If you hear fax tones,
hold the handset until Fax Detect activates
your machine. If the other party says they
want to send you a fax, activate the machine
by pressing l 51.
(MFC-665CW only)
When the machine is in Fax/Tel mode and
F/T rings to tell you to pick up a voice call, you
can only answer by picking up the machine’s
handset.
If you answer before the machine F/T rings,
you can also pick up the call at an external or
extension phone.
Phone line services 7
Your machine supports the Caller ID
subscriber telephone service that some
telephone companies offer.
Features like Voice Mail, Call Waiting, Call
Waiting/Caller ID, RingMaster, answering
services, alarm systems or other custom
features on one phone line may create
problems with the operation of your machine.
Do you have Voice Mail? 7
If you have Voice Mail on the phone line that
you will install your new machine on, there is
a strong possibility that Voice Mail and the
machine will conflict with each other while
receiving incoming calls. However, the
Distinctive Ring feature allows you to use
more than one number on your line, so
both Voice Mail and the machine can work
together without any problems. If each one
has a separate phone number, neither will
interfere with the other’s operations.
If you decide to get the Distinctive Ring
service from the telephone company, you will
need to follow the directions on next page to
‘register’ the new Distinctive Ring pattern
they give you. This is so your machine can
recognise its incoming calls.
