Composing a Single Voice-fax Extension
Greeting
Fax messaging is a new capability and many callers will be unfamiliar with it at
first. Callers will find it helpful if you record a greeting that briefly instructs them
about your fax messaging.
Explain
how to transmit
a fax:
“This is Richard Hyatt at Gobels & Nixon. I’m away from my desk; please
leave a message at the tone. If you want to include a fax with your
message, press
START on your fax machine when you finish speaking. If
you want to send
only
a fax, press START on your fax machine
now
.”
Composing a Greeting If You Have a
Personal Fax Extension
While it is a true mailbox, a personal fax extension also acts as a storage site to
reduce the memory limits of a single voice-fax extension for users who receive
many faxes.
Callers
cannot address
voice
messages
to your personal fax extension.
A personal fax extension stores faxes only. If you have a personal fax
extension, the system automatically sends faxes to this extension.
Fax messages addressed to your fax extension do not ring your
telephone.
Fax messages addressed to your fax extension do trigger your
message light.
Like voice-mail headers and voice messages, fax headers addressed to
your personal fax extension are stored in your primary mailbox.
In the case of a voice-fax message, a caller must address the message
(both fax and voice) to your primary mailbox.
