Block Junk Fax

You can block unwanted faxes by setting to receive faxes only from registered speed dial numbers, or rejecting reception from specific registered numbers.

There are three ways to block unwanted junk faxes.

  • Mode 1:

    This mode rejects the senders who are not registered in the speed dial numbers. If the last four digits of a registered fax number match the sender ID, reception is allowed.

  • Mode 2:

    This mode rejects the senders with the numbers that are registered to block junk faxes. Register four to eight digits of a fax number. You can enter up to 10 numbers.

  • Mode 3:

    This mode is a combination of Mode 1 and Mode 2. This mode rejects the senders who are not registered in the speed dial numbers. This mode also rejects the senders who are registered to block junk faxes.

  • OFF:

    Junk faxes are not blocked.
