Note

Your fax machine supports the Distinctive Ring, Caller ID and Call Waiting/Caller ID telephone services offered by some telephone companies.

If you have Voice Mail only, Call Waiting, RingMaster, an answering service, or an alarm system custom feature on your telephone line, it may create a problem in the operation of your fax machine. (See Custom Features on a Single Line, page 12-8.)

If you have Voice Mail on your phone line, please read the following carefully.

Distinctive Ring

The term “Distinctive Ring” is used by Brother to identify a telephone company service that is given many names, depending on the telephone company you are using. For example, this service may be called SmartRing, RingMaster, Teen-Ring, Ident-a- Call or Ident-a-Ring.

What Does Your Telephone Company’s “Distinctive Ring” Do?

Your telephone company’s Distinctive Ring service allows more than one number to

be on same phone line. If you need more than one phone number, it is an

inexpensive alternative to paying for an additional line. Each phone number has its own distinctive ring pattern, so you’ll know which phone number is ringing. This is one way you can have a separate phone number for your fax machine.

Please consult your telephone company for availability and rates.

What Does Brother’s “Distinctive Ring” Do?

The Brother machine has a Distinctive Ring feature that allows you to use your fax machine to take full advantage of the telephone company’s Distinctive Ring service. You can dedicate the new phone number on your line to receive only faxes.

Note You must purchase your telephone company’s Distinctive Ring service before you program the Brother machine to work with it.
