Fax settings for sending only

My machine is ImageClass MF236n

I do not want to receive faxes on it - I use eFax to receive faxes on my email.   But I do want to send faxes.

 

The telephone line I connect to the printer to send faxes is the same line that I use for regular telephone calls.  What RX settings are appropriate to ensure that the machine does not respond to incoming calls ?

Very simple and clear. Thank you especially for displaying the screens, not just 'tap...tap .... select'.
