Setting Block Junk Fax

Although it’s illegal, unauthorized fax traffic — “junk fax” — keeps coming. Your fax

machine’s

Block Junk Fax

feature lets you bar the gates… but, first, please understand

how

this feature works, to determine whether it is right for you.

There are four possible settings for the Block Junk Fax feature:

•

Off

— The feature is turned off.

•

Mode 1

(the display calls it “Mode1”) — Your fax machine

limits

document reception to

fax machines whose phone number are stored in your auto-dialer (i.e., one-touch and

speed-dial numbers).

Your machine checks to see if any phone numbers in your autodialer matches the last

four digits of the calling fax machine’s subscriber

(remember, that’s the phone

number part of the

TTI

). If it

doesn’t

find such a match, your machine will disconnect the

call.

•

Mode 2

(the display calls it “Mode2”) — In this mode, your fax machine

rejects

document reception

from

fax machines whose phone numbers are stored in the

blocked

number list

(we’ll explain).

Your fax machine checks to see if any phone number in your

blocked numbers list

matches the last eight digits of the calling fax machine’s phone number.

If it

does

find such a match, your machine will disconnect the call.

•

Mode 3

(the display calls it “Mode3”) — This combines Modes 1 and 2 ; this is for use

if, for example, you

wish to

send

a document

to,

but

do not

wish to

receive

from a

fax machine whose phone number is stored in your autodialer. If so, store the same last

eight digits (at least four digits) of the phone number as your autodialer into the

blocked

numbers list

so that you can activate this mode.

Note:

In the Block Junk Fax dial list under Modes 2 and 3, your fax can store up to 50

separate fax numbers from which you wish to reject calls.

So, before you activate the Block Junk Fax feature, please consider:

•

Not all fax machine owners enter their phone numbers in their Subscriber

— With

this feature activated, your machine would reject faxes from such machines.

•

Access codes can cause confusion

. — If an autodialer entry ends with long-distance or

other access codes, Block Junk Fax will block out calls from those fax machines. (i.e.,

those other fax users won’t put

your

codes at the end of

their

Subscriber

s.)

If you do decide to go ahead with activating Block Junk Fax, here’s how:

If the machine is in Fax mode, proceed to step 2.

If it is in Copy mode, press

COPY

FA X

to change to Fax mode.

Press

PROGRAM

ENTER

. The display shows your fax’s current setting:

Block Junk Fax:Off

Program/Enter

If the setting you see is acceptable, skip to step 4.

Otherwise, proceed to step 3.

To change the setting, press

PROGRAM

repeatedly until your chosen setting

appears.

In this example, we’ve chosen

Mode2

Block Junk Fax:Mode2

Program/Enter

Press

ENTER

to save the setting.

What you do next depends upon what you selected in step 2 or 3.

• If you selected either

Off

Mode1

, the machine will return to its normal

standby mode. Ignore steps 5–10 in this procedure.

• If you selected either

Mode2

Mode3

, the display will show:

Set BlockJunk Dial

Program/Enter

Press

ENTER

and proceed to step 5 to enter or modify a junk dial number.

Otherwise, press

PROGRAM

and skip to step 10.

Depending on whether you already have a number entered into the blocked

numbers list, the display shows one of the following:

1 2 ... 85 86 87 88 89 90 91 92 93 94 95 ... 146 147
