Roll over telephone lines  
5
A roll over telephone system is a group of two  
or more separate telephone lines that pass  
incoming calls to each other if they are busy.  
The calls are usually passed down or “rolled  
over” to the next available telephone line in a  
preset order.  
Tone or Pulse (Canada only)  
5
If you have a Pulse dialing service, but need  
to send Tone signals (for example, for  
telephone banking), follow the instructions  
below. If you have Touch Tone service, you  
will not need this feature to send tone signals.  
Your machine can work in a roll over system  
as long as it is the last number in the  
sequence, so the call cannot roll away. Do not  
put the machine on any of the other numbers;  
when the other lines are busy and a second  
fax call is received, the fax call would be  
transferred to a line that does not have a fax  
machine. Your machine will work best on a  
dedicated line.

Any digits dialed after this will send tone  
signals.  
When you are finished with the call, the  
machine will return to the Pulse dialing  
service.  
Two-line telephone system  
5
For Fax/Tel mode only  
5
A two-line telephone system is nothing more  
than two separate telephone numbers on the  
same wall outlet. The two telephone numbers  
can be on separate jacks (RJ11) or combined  
into one jack (RJ14). Your machine must be  
plugged into an RJ11 jack. RJ11 and RJ14  
jacks may be equal in size and appearance  
and both may contain four wires (black, red,  
green, yellow). To test the type of jack, plug in  
a two-line telephone and see if it can access  
both lines. If it can, you must separate the line  
for your machine.  
When the machine is in Fax/Tel mode, it will  
use the F/T Ring Time  
(pseudo/double-ringing) to alert you to pick  
up a voice call.  
If you are at the machine, lift the external  
telephone’s handset, and then press Hook to  
answer.  
If you are at an extension telephone, lift the  
handset during the F/T Ring Time and then  
press #51 between the pseudo/double rings.  
If no one is on the line, or if someone wants to  
send you a fax, send the call back to the  
machine by pressing l51.

assistance from the telephone company. You  
can change the wall outlets from one RJ14  
jack to two RJ11 jacks. Or, you can have an  
RJ11 wall outlet installed and slave or jump  
one of the telephone numbers to it.  
c Plug one end of the first telephone line  
cord for your TAD into the L1 jack of the  
triplex adapter. Plug the other end into  
the L1 or L1/L2 jack of the two-line TAD.  
The third way is the easiest: Buy a triplex  
adapter. You can plug a triplex adapter into  
an RJ14 outlet. It separates the wires into two  
separate RJ11 jacks (Line 1, Line 2) and a  
third RJ14 jack (Lines 1 and 2). If your  
machine is on Line 1, plug the machine into  
L1 of the triplex adapter. If your machine is on  
Line 2, plug it into L2 of the triplex adapter.  
d Plug one end of the second telephone  
line cord for your TAD into the L2 jack of  
the two-line TAD. Plug the other end into

Machine  
When you are installing an external two-line  
telephone answering device (TAD) and a  
two-line telephone, your machine must be  
isolated on one line at both the wall jack and  
at the TAD. The most common connection is  
to put the machine on Line 2, which is  
explained in the following steps. The back of  
the two-line TAD must have two telephone  
jacks: one labeled L1 or L1/L2, and the other  
labeled L2. You will need at least three  
telephone line cords, the one that came with  
your machine and two for your external  
two-line TAD. You will need a fourth line cord  
if you add a two-line telephone.  
You can keep two-line telephones on other  
wall outlets as always. There are two ways to  
add a two-line telephone to the machine’s  
wall outlet. You can plug the telephone line  
cord from the two-line telephone into the  
L1+L2 jack of the triplex adapter. Or, you can  
plug the two-line telephone into the TEL jack  
of the two-line TAD.

You can combine more than one Quick Dial  
number when you dial. This feature may be  
useful if you need to dial an access code for  
a cheaper rate from another long distance  
carrier.  
If you often want to send the same fax  
message to many fax numbers you can set  
up a Group.  
Groups are stored on a One Touch key or a  
Speed Dial number. Each Group uses up a  
One Touch key or a Speed Dial location. You  
can then send the fax message to all the  
numbers stored in a Group just by pressing a  
One Touch key or entering a Speed Dial  
number, and then pressing Start.  
For example, you might have stored ‘555’ on  
Speed Dial #003 and ‘7000’ on Speed Dial  
#002. You can use them both to dial  
‘555-7000’ if you press the following keys:  
Press  
(Address Book) twice, 003.  
Before you can add numbers to a Group, you  
need to store them as One Touch or Speed  
Dial numbers. You can set up to 20 small  
Groups, or you can assign up to 315 numbers  
to one large Group.  
Press  
(Address Book) twice, 002 and  
Start.  
Numbers can be added manually by entering  
them on the dial pad:  
MFC-8510DN and MFC-8710DW

Press  
(Address Book) twice, 003, 7001  
(on the dial pad), and Start.  
You can add the IFAX and E-mail options by

a pause by pressing the Redial/Pause key.
