■The MFC will only answer calls to its registered number.
■The first two rings are silent on the MFC. This is because the fax
must «listen» to the rin g pattern (to compare it to the pattern that
was ‘registered’). (Other telephones on the same line will ring.)
■If you program the MFC p roperly, it will recogniz e the registered
ring pattern of the ‘fax number’ within 2 ring patterns and then
answer with a fax tone. When the ‘voice number’ is called, the
MFC will not answer.
