Answer/receive mode
! When no document is loaded, press the Rcv.Mode/Contrast button until AUTO, FAX,
or TEL displays. If you are going to use the answering machine, we recommend
setting the Receive mode to AUTO.
NOTE: If you want to use Distinctive Ring service from your phone company, set it up
and select it using the Rcv.Mode/Contrast button before turning on the answering
machine. See “Distinctive ring (DRPD)” on page 30.

appears in the right hand corner of the
display.
• When a call comes in, the machine answers it. If a fax is being
sent, the device receives the fax. If the HP Fax does not sense a fax
signal, it will ring in a different tone to tell you it may be a regular
telephone call. If you do not pick up the handset it will again
attempt to receive the fax after several more rings. If a greeting has
been recorded the HP 1050 Fax will turn on the answering
machine and attempt to record a message.
• If you want to change the number of rings before it answers, see
Set rings to answer on page 27.
