Changing the rings-to-answer setting
When the answer mode is set to Automatic, the device rings-to-answer setting determines
the number of times the telephone rings before the device answers an incoming call.
If the device is connected to a line that receives both fax and voice calls (a shared line) and
that also uses an answering machine, you might need to adjust the rings-to-answer setting.
The number of rings-to-answer for the device must be greater than the rings-to-answer on
the answering machine....

Changing autoreduction settings for incoming faxes
If the fit-to-page option is turned on, the device automatically reduces long faxes up to 75
percent to fit the information on the default paper size (for example, the fax is reduced from
legal to letter size).
If the fit-to-page option is turned off, long faxes print at full size on multiple pages. The
factory-set default for incoming fax autoreduction is On.
If you have the stamp-received faxes option turned on, you might also want to turn on...

Blocking or unblocking fax numbers
If you do not want to receive faxes from specific people or businesses, you can block as
many as 30 fax numbers by using the control panel. When you block a fax number and
someone from that number sends you a fax, the control-panel display indicates that the
number is blocked, the fax does not print, and the fax is not saved in memory. Faxes from
blocked fax numbers appear in the fax activity log with a “discarded” designation. You can
unblock blocked fax numbers...

About speed-dial entries, one-touch keys, and group-dial entries
You can store frequently dialed fax numbers or groups of fax numbers as one-touch keys,
speed-dial entries, or group-dial entries.
In the device phone book, a total of 120 entries are available for speed-dial entries and
group-dial entries. For example, if you program 100 of the entries as speed-dials, the

of every fax number you enter at the control panel or from the software. The maximum
number of characters for a dial prefix is 50.

Sending a delayed fax
