Distinctive Ring
This feature lets you use the Distinctive Ring subscriber service offered by some telephone companies, which allows you to have several telephone numbers on one phone 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 MFC.
Your MFC has a Distinctive Ring function, allowing you to dedicate one phone number just for receiving faxes. You’ll need to follow the directions below to “register” the new Distinctive Ring pattern, that was assigned by the Telephone Company, so your MFC can recognize its incoming calls.
You can change or cancel the Distinctive Ring pattern at any time. You can
switch it off temporarily, then turn it back on. When you get a new fax number, be sure to you reset this function.
You can register only one Distinctive Ring pattern with the MFC. Some ring patterns cannot be registered.
