Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

• Does the MFC-690 require a separate phone line for making voice calls?
  No. It includes a built-in automated Fax/Tel switch layout alongside an integrated telephone handset. The system dynamically listens to your incoming line, seamlessly sending routine voice calls straight to the telephone handset while routing inbound data fax tones directly to the printing mechanism over one single active phone line.
• How does the integrated Message Center handle incoming voice messages?
  This model features a built-in digital answering system that records up to 20 minutes of voice messages. It will intelligently pick up incoming voice calls when you are away from your desk, while remaining fully ready to handle data fax handshakes on the exact same telephone connection line.
• Will my inbound document data be lost if the machine runs out of paper or ribbon?
  No. The machine features an emergency document memory cache layout that safely stores up to 20 incoming fax pages. Your data remains locked securely in electronic storage and will automatically print out the absolute moment fresh paper or a replacement ribbon assembly is loaded.
