Reception Modes

Your multi-function machine has four reception modes as

described below:

• FA X The machine answers an incoming call and immediately

goes into fax receive mode.

• TEL/FAX The machine answers the incoming call. If a fax

signal is not detected, the WorkCentre 470cx sounds a ringing

tone to indicate a voice phone call. If the external phone is not

lifted while the ringing tone is sounding, the machine will

switch to automatic fax reception mode.

• TEL In TEL mode, automatic fax reception is turned off. You

can receive a fax only by manually picking up the external

phone to accept the call and then pressing the Start/Enter

button to receive the fax.

• ANS/FAX To use the ANS/FAX mode, you have to attach an

answering machine to the EXT jack on your fax machine. If the

WorkCentre 470cx senses a fax tone, it automatically switches

to fax reception mode. However, if a fax is not sensed, the

WorkCentre 470cx routes the call to the answering machine,

and the caller can leave a message.
