7.2 Recording your
greeting message
You can record your own greeting message for
TAM/FAX mode, for a maximum of 16 seconds
(default) or 60 seconds in length. We
recommend you record a message of less than
12 seconds to make it easier to receive faxes. If
a greeting message is not recorded, one of two
pre-recorded greetings will be played when a call
is received (page 66).
Sample message:
“This is (your name). We are
unable to answer right now. To send a fax, start
transmission. To leave a message for John,
