Distinctive Ringing
This machine 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’ll know which phone number is ringing.
This is one way you can have a separate phone number for your machine.
Your machine 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 new Distinctive Ringing pattern, that
was assigned by the Telephone Company, so your machine can recognize
its incoming calls.
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, be sure to you reset this function.
You can register only one Distinctive Ringing pattern with the machine.
Some ringing patterns cannot be registered.

phone line.
