Select the Receive Mode that Suits Your Needs

The receive mode determines how the machine responds to incoming faxes and voice calls. Select the mode which is most suitable for you from the chart below. For details, see “About the Receiving Modes,” on p. 15.
The remote reception function is useful when the receive mode is set to <Manual> and connected to an external telephone. You can
receive faxes by picking up the external telephone and pressing a two-digit remote reception ID (the default setting is 25). For details, see Chapter 4, ”Sending and Receiving (MF6595cx/MF6595/MF6590 Only),” in the Reference Guide. Your telephone with built-in answering machine or answering machine must be connected directly to the machine for <AnsMode>
to work. (See “Connect Telephone Cables,” on p. 10.) The external telephone must be connected to the machine for <FaxTel> or <Manual> to work. (See “Connect Telephone Cables,” on
p. 1
0.)
By default, <FaxOnly> is selected in <1. RX MODE>. If external telephone is connected to the machine and receives a fax or voice call,
the external telephone rings if incoming ring is enabled. You can answer the voice call while the external telephone is ringing. For incoming ring to be enabled, press [Additional Functions] <3. FAX SETTINGS> <4. RX SETTINGS> <4. INCOMING RING> then select <ON>.
Voice mail is not supported with <AnsMode>.
DRPD (Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection) service assigns two or more telephone numbers with distinctive ring patterns to a single
telephone line, allowing you to have both a fax number(s) and a telephone number(s) using only one telephone line. Your fax will automatically monitor incoming calls and based on the ring pattern, will let you know if the call is a fax or voice call. Set the fax ring pattern that matches the pattern assigned by your telephone company. Contact your telephone company for availability.
