Restricting Dialing from a Fax Machine
You can use dialing restrictions to restrict calling activity on a fax machine. For
example, you can use
Outgoing Call Restriction (#401) to restrict the fax
machine to local calls only. For a more detailed discussion of dialing
restrictions, see Chapter 2.
Single Fax Machine
The single fax machine setup (shown in Figure 4-1) is good for moderate traffic.
The fax machine has its own line (Line A), the number of which is published as
the fax number. (The fax line can be used by other phones when all other lines
are busy.) The fax machine is connected to its own extension (extension X).

To Use
The fax machine automatically answers all calls that come in on the fax line. If a
call comes in on another line, you can transfer the call to the fax extension (see
“Transferring a Call to the Fax Machine”). If you have programmed a Fax
Management button, you can transfer a call to the fax machine with a single
touch, as well as monitor the status of the fax machine (see “Fax Management
Feature” earlier in this chapter).
When you send a fax, the system automatically selects the fax line.

Use Line Assignment (#301) to assign only line A to extension X.
Set
Automatic Extension Privacy (#304) for extension X to “on.”
To monitor the fax machine, use
Fax Machine Extensions (#601) to identify
extension X as a fax extension and program a Fax Management button.
Make sure extension X is not assigned to any
Calling Groups (#502), any
Pickup Groups (#501), the Night Service Group (#504), or any Hunt
Groups (#505).
Set Line Ringing for line A on extension X to “immediate ring.” On all other
extensions, set line A to “delayed ring” or “no ring. ”
