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, you can have single, double, and triple rings for the different numbers. You can set up your HP all-in-one to answer incoming calls that have a specific ring pattern.

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

For example, you might have your telephone company assign double rings to your fax number and a single ring to your voice number. In this setup, set the Answer Ring Pattern for your HP all-in-one to Double Rings. You can also set the Rings to Answer setting to 3. When a call comes in with a double ring, the HP all-in-one answers it after three rings and receives the fax.

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

To change the answer ring pattern from the control panel

1Verify that your HP all-in-one is set to answer fax calls automatically. For information, see Set the answer mode.

2Press Setup.

3Press 5, and then press 1.

This selects Advanced Fax Setup and then selects Answer Ring Pattern.

4Press to select an option, and then press OK.

When the phone rings with the ring pattern assigned to your fax phone line, the HP all-in-one answers the call and receives the fax.
