Distinctive Ringing This FAX/MFC 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 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. You'll need to follow the directions below to "register" the Distinctive Ringing pattern, so your FAX/MFC can recognize its incoming calls. You will need another person standing by on another line to help you with Step 6 of this registration. 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, make sure you reset this function.
