Distinctive Ringing
This FAX/MFC feature lets you use the Distinctive Ringing 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 Ringing
pattern, so you know which phone number is ringing. This is one way you can
have a separate phone number for your FAX/MFC.
Your FAX/MFC has a Distinctive Ringing function, allowing you to dedicate one
phone number just for receiving faxes. You’ll need to follow the directions below
to “register” the Distinctive Ringing pattern, so your FAX/MFC can recognize its
incoming calls. You will need another person standing by on another line to help
you with Step 6 of this registration.
You can change or cancel the Distinctive Ringing pattern at any time. You can
switch it off temporarily, then turn it back on. When you get a new fax number,
make sure you reset this function.
