change the answer ring pattern (distinctive ringing)

Many phone companies offer a distinctive ringing feature that allows you to have several phone numbers on one phone line. When you subscribe to this service, each number will have a different ring pattern, for example, single, double, and triple rings.

If you connect your HP Officejet to a line with distinctive ringing, have your telephone company assign one ring pattern to voice calls and another to fax calls. We recommend that you request double or triple rings for a fax number. When the HP Officejet detects the specified ring pattern, it will answer the calls and receive the fax.

If you do not have this service, use the default ring pattern, which is All Rings.
