Remote Retrieval

This section is for the FAX 870MC and MFC 970MC. (If you have the FAX 770,
please see Chapter 9 for your remote fax options.) You can call your FAX/MFC
from any touch tone phone (or remote Group 3 fax machine) and use a Remote
Access Code and other button presses to retrieve voice (and fax) messages. You can
also program and change some settings for your Message Center.

Using Remote Access Code

1

Dial your FAX/MFC phone number from a touch tone phone.

2

When your FAX/MFC answers and beeps, immediately enter your Remote
Access Code.

3

The FAX/MFC signals the kinds of messages received:

1 long beep—Fax message(s)

2 long beeps—Voice message(s)
3 long beeps—Fax and Voice message(s)

No beeps—no messages

4

The FAX/MFC then prompts you with two short beeps to enter a command.
If you wait longer than 30 seconds to enter a command, the MFC hangs up.
If you enter an invalid command, the FAX/MFC beeps three times.
