Distinctive Ring: User Function 12
Some telephone carriers offer a service called Distinctive
Ring. Distinctive Ring lets you have different numbers on
one line, each with its own distinctive ring. You can then
use one number exclusively as a fax number without the
expense of a second line. (Your local telephone carrier can
provide you with more information about this service,
which usually has an additional charge.) To use this
function, refer to Setting Your Fax Machine’s Ring Pattern
below. Available settings are OFF (default) and ON.
