About Receiving Modes

answering machine to the phone connector 
() on the back of your printer.
When the memory is full, the fax is received in the Telephone mode.
Loading Paper for Receiving Faxes
The instructions for loading paper in the paper tray are the same whether you are 
printing, faxing, or copying, except that faxes can only be printed on Letter-
sized, A4-sized, or Legal-sized paper. For details about loading paper, see 
Loading Print Media. For details about setting the paper type and size in the 
tray, see Print Media Guidelines.
Receiving a Fax Automatically in the Fax Mode
Your printer is preset to the fax mode at the factory. 
If you receive a fax, the printer automatically goes into the fax mode after a 
specified period of time and receives the fax.
To change the interval at which the printer goes into the fax mode after receiving 
an incoming call, see Available Fax Settings Options.
Receiving a Fax Manually in the Telephone Mode
You can receive a fax by picking up the handset of the external telephone and 
then pressing the remote receive code (see Available Fax Settings Options), or 
by setting OnHook to On (you can hear voice or fax tones from the remote 
machine) and then pressing the   (Start) button.

DELL CONFIDENTIAL – PRELIMINARY 9/13/10 - FOR PROOF ONLY
The printer begins receiving a fax and returns to the standby mode when the 
reception is completed.
Receiving a Fax Automatically in the Telephone/Fax or Ans 
Machine/Fax
To use the Telephone/Fax or Ans Machine/Fax mode, you must 
connect an external telephone to the phone connector ( ) on the back of your 
printer. 
If the caller leaves a message, the answering machine stores the message as it 
would normally. If your printer hears a fax tone on the line, it automatically 
starts to receive a fax. 
 NOTE: If you have set your printer to Ans Machine/Fax and your 
answering machine is switched off, or no answering machine is connected to your 
printer, your printer will automatically go into the 
Fax mode after a predefined 
time.
Receiving a Fax Manually Using an External Telephone
This feature works best when you are using an external telephone connected to 
the phone connector ( ) on the back of your printer. You can receive a fax 
from someone you are talking to on the external telephone without having to go 
to the printer.
When you receive a call on the external telephone and hear fax tones, press the 
two-digit keys on the external telephone, or set OnHook to Off and then press 
the  (Start) button.
The printer receives the document.
Press the buttons slowly in sequence. If you still hear the fax tone from the 
remote machine, try pressing the two-digit keys once again.
The remote receive code is set to Off at the factory. You can change the two-
digit number to whatever you choose. For details on changing the code, see 
Available Fax Settings Options.
 NOTE: Set the dialing system of your external telephone to DTMF.

Receiving Faxes Using the DRPD
The DRPD is a telephone company service which enables a user to use a single 
telephone line to answer several different telephone numbers. The particular 
number someone uses to call you on is identified by different ringing patterns, 
which consist of various combinations of long and short ringing sounds.
Before using the Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection option, Distinctive Ring 
service must be installed on your telephone line by the telephone company. To 
set up Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection, you will need another telephone line 
at your location, or someone available to dial your FAX number from outside. 
To set up the DRPD:
1
Press the   (Menu) button.
2Press  button until System Setup is highlighted, and then press the 
 
(Set) button.
3Press  button until Admin Menu is highlighted, and then press the   
(Set) button.
4Press  button until Fax Settings is highlighted, and then press the 
 
(Set) button.
5Press  button until DRPD Pattern is highlighted, and then press the 
 
(Set) button.
6Press   or   button until the desired pattern is highlighted, and then press 
the  
(Set) button.
7Reboot the printer by turning the power switch off and then on again.
To receive faxes in the DRPD, you need to set the menu to DRPD. For 
details, see Available Fax Settings Options.
Your printer provides seven DRPD patterns. If this service is available from 
your telephone company, ask your telephone company which pattern you 
need to select to use this service.
Receiving Faxes in the Memory
Since your printer is a multi-tasking device, it can receive faxes while you are 
making copies or printing. If you receive a fax while you are copying, printing, 
or run out of paper or toner, your printer stores incoming faxes in the memory. 
Then, as soon as you finish copying, printing, or re-supply the consumables, the 
printer automatically prints the fax.
