Receive a fax manually
When you are on the phone, the person you are speaking with can send you a fax while you are still
connected. This is referred to as manual faxing. Use the instructions in this section to receive
a manual fax.
NOTE: You can pick up the handset to talk or listen for fax tones.
You can receive faxes manually from a phone that is:
●
Directly connected to the printer (on the 2-EXT port)

On the same phone line, but not directly connected to the printer
