Brother Model MFC-5200C All in One Printer User Manual


 
SETUP RECEIVE 5 - 11
The MFC will only answer calls to its registered number.
The first two rings are silent on the fax machine. This is because
the fax must «listen» to the ring pattern (to compare it to the
pattern that was registered). (Other telephones on the same line
will ring.)
If you program the MFC properly, it will recognize the registered
ring pattern of the fax number within 2 ring patterns and then
answer with a fax tone. When the voice number is called, the
MFC will not answer.
Very important
When you set the Distinctive Ring feature to ON, the receive mode
is set to MANUAL
automatically.
MANUAL
mode will never pick up a
call by itself since it is <<Neutral>>. You can not change the receive
mode to the other mode while the Distinctive Ring is set to on.
