12 Setting the receive mode
Your Image 2000 answers calls, and receives
faxes in one of five modes:
MANUAL
AUTOFAX
TEL/FAX
ANS/FAX
PC FAX
To set or change the receive mode
The currently set receive mode is shown in
the display.
Which setting is correct for you?
MANUAL When set to MANUAL you must
answer all calls by lifting the handset. If the
incoming call is a fax, press the START button
and replace the handset.
AUTOFAX In AUTOFAX mode, your Image 2000
automatically answers any incoming calls and
prepares to receive a fax. If the handset is
picked up before the machine answers an
incoming call, you can talk to the caller or press
the START button to receive a fax.
TEL/FAX When in TEL/FAX mode your Image
2000 answers calls after one ring and checks
for a fax signal. If it is not a fax call, the caller
is put on hold, the phone rings and the display
shows LIFT HANDSET to indicate you should
answer the call manually. If you do not lift the
handset before the ringing stops, your Image
2000 will assume it is a fax call and prepare to
receive a fax. To change the number of rings
before the call is answered, see page 50.
ANS/FAX
In ANS/FAX mode your Image 2000 can
operate with an answering machine. This
means that you can receive voice messages
and faxes.
All calls are answered automatically by the
answering machine and your outgoing
message is played. Callers can leave a
message. If the Image 2000 detects a fax signal
while the answer machine is operating, it will
automatically take control of the call and
receive the fax.
PC FAX In PC FAX mode your Image 2000
will receive and send faxes to a connected PC
with the fax application software installed. If
your PC is switched off, or the fax application
isn’t running, incoming faxes will be received
on your Image 2000 after 8 rings, as if it was in
AUTOFAX mode. You can send faxes from the
PC with the Image 2000 in any receive mode.
Faxes can always be sent directly from your
Image 2000, even when in PC FAX mode.
In order for the ANS/FAX mode to work, your
Image 2000 must be connected to an answering
machine - via the socket located just above the line
cord socket on the back of the base unit.

Sub addresses and passwords
In addition to name, fax and phone numbers,
you can also store a sub-address number and a
password, each up to 20 digits long.
A sub-address is like a mailbox at the receiving
machine and faxes sent to this mailbox can
normally only be accessed by someone who knows
the sub-address. Not all fax machines that you send
to have this facility.
A password can be used when polling a document
from another machine. It provides security and the
password must be the same as the password set at
the polled machine. See POLLING, page 36.
Sub-addresses and passwords can only be used
with fax machines which comply with the
international fax standards.
