TEL/FAX Mode
When the printer receives an incoming fax, the external telephone

printer automatically receives a fax. If an incoming call is not a fax, the
printer beeps from the internal speaker indicating that the call is a
telephone call.
Ans/FAX Mode
The printer can share a telephone line with an answering machine. In
this mode, the printer will monitor the fax signal and pick up the line if
there are fax tones.
DRPD Mode
Before using the Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection (DRPD) option,
distinctive ring service must be installed on your telephone line by the

separate number for faxing with a distinctive ring pattern, configure
the fax setup to monitor for that specific ring pattern.
