Do you have Voice Mail?
If you have Voice Mail on the phone line that you will install your new
MFC on, there is a strong possibility that Voice Mail and the MFC will
conflict with each other while receiving incoming calls. However, the
Distinctive Ring feature allows you to use more than one
number on your line, so both Voice Mail and the MFC can work
together without any problems. If each one has a separate phone
number, neither will interfere with the other’s operations.
If you decide to get the Distinctive Ring service from the telephone
company, you will need to follow the directions below to ‘register’ the
new Distinctive Ring pattern they give you. This is so your MFC can
recognize its incoming calls.
Before you choose the ring pattern to register
You can only register one Distinctive Ring pattern with the MFC.
Some ring patterns cannot be registered. The ring patterns below are
supported by your Brother MFC. Register the one your telephone
company gives you.
You can change or cancel the Distinctive Ring pattern at any
time. You can switch it off temporarily, and turn it back on later.
When you get a new fax number, make sure you reset this
feature.
