9Telephone Service 51 Custom Features Your fax machine supports the Distinctive Ring and Caller ID telephone services offered by some telephone companies. If you have Call Waiting, Ring Master, Voice Mail, an answering service or an alarm system custom feature on your telephone line, it may create a problem in the operation of your fax machine. Distinctive Ring This fax machine feature lets you use the Distinctive Ring 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 Ring pattern, so you know which phone number is ringing. This is one way you can have a separate phone number for your fax machine. Your fax machine has a Distinctive Ring 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 Ring pattern, that was assigned by the Telephone Company, so your fax machine can recognize its incoming calls. You can change or cancel the Distinctive Ring 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.
