Setting Ring Delay
The Ring Delay setting determines the number of times the machine rings
before it answers.  If you have extension phones on the same line as the
machine, keep the Ring Delay default setting of  4. (See Easy Receive,
page 5-3 and Operation from External or  Extension Telephones and For
FAX/TEL Mode Only, page 5-7.)

For the MFC, press 
Function, 1, 2, 1.
2Press  or  to select how many times the line rings before the
machine answers (00 Ð 04) and press 
Set.
(If you select 00, the line doesnÕt ring at all.)
3Press Stop to exit.
Setting F/T Ring Time
You must determine how long the machine will notify you with its special
double ring when you have a voice call.  This ringing happens after the
initial ringing from the phone company.  Only the machine rings, for 20,
30, 40 or 70 seconds; no other phones on the same line ring the special
double ring. However, you can also answer the call on any extension
phone on the same phone number as the machine.

For the MFC, press 
Function, 1, 2, 2.
2Press  or  to select how longRING TIME:20 SEC
SELECT  & SETthe machine will ring to alert you
that you have a voice call and press 
Set.
3Press Stop to exit.
Now, when a call comes in and the machine 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 machine pick up and detect if itÕs a fax or voice call.
If itÕs a fax call, the machine prints the fax. If itÕs a voice call, the machine
signals you with a double ring for the length of time you selected in
F/T Ring Time.
 
Even if the caller hangs up during the double ringing, the machine
continues ringing for the set time.

Advanced Receiving Operations
Operation from Extension Telephone (For FAX 4750, MFC
8300, MFC 8600 and MFC 8700 only) or External Telephone
If you answer a fax call on an extension phone (or on an external phone in
the EXT.  jack), you can make your machine take over by using the Fax
Receive Code. When you press the Fax Receive Code 
 5 1, the
machine starts to receive a fax. (See Setting Ring Delay, page 5-2 and
Easy Receive, page 5-3.)
If the machine answers a voice call and double-rings for you to take over,
use the Telephone Answer Code 
 5 1 to take the call at an extension
phone.
If you answer a call, and no one is on the line, assume youÕre receiving a
fax. At the machineÕs phone, press 
Start, then hang up.  At an extension
phone, press 
 5 1, wait for fax receiving tones (chirps), then hang up.
At an external phone, press 
 5 1 and wait for the phone to be
disconnected (the screen displays RECEIVING) before you hang up.
(Your caller will have to press 
Start to send the fax.)
For the FAX 5750, the Fax Receive Code and Telephone Answer Code can
be used only from an external phone.
For FAX/TEL Mode Only
When the machine is in FAX/TEL mode, it will use the F/T Ring Time
(double-ringing) to alert you to pick up a voice call. If youÕre at the
machine, you can lift the handset to answer.
If youÕre at an extension phone, youÕll need to lift the handset during the
F/T Ring Time and press 
 5 1 between the double rings. If no one is
on the line, or if someone wants to send you a fax, send the call back to
the machine by pressing 
 5 1.

Remote Codes might not work with some telephone systems. The preset
Fax Receive Code is
