Distinctive Ringing
This machine feature lets you use the Distinctive Ringing subscriber service offered by Telstras
FaxStream
®
Duet, which allows you to have at least two separate telephone numbers on the 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.

Caller ID (Caller IDentification)
Caller ID is a telephone service that allows the subscriber to see a display of the callers phone
number or name as the telephone rings. It is a fast way to screen your calls. You can respond quickly
to calls you missed, because Caller IDs are received and stored in your FAX/MFC memory.
You can switch it off temporarily, then turn it back on. When you get a new fax
number, make sure you reset this function.
To have your external TAD answer only the main number, the machine
must be in Manual Mode.
In FAX/TEL (F/T) or FAX ONLY mode, the machine will answer all numbers
on the phone line.
To get the Caller ID Service: apply for the Caller ID service at your local
telephone company, if available.
