Telephone Services Your MFC supports the Distinctive Ring telephone service offered by some telephone companies. If you have Voice Mail, Call Waiting, Caller ID, Call Waiting/Caller ID, RingMaster, an answering service, or an alarm system custom feature on your telephone line, it may create a problem in the operation of your MFC. (See Custom Features on a Single Line, page 20-8.) If you have Voice Mail on your phone line, please read the following carefully. Distinctive Ring The term "Distinctive Ring" is used by Brother to identify a phone company service that is given many names, depending on the Telephone Company you are using. For example, this service may be called SmartRing, RingMaster, TeenRing, Indent-a-Call or Indent-a-Ring. What Does Your Telephone Company's "Distinctive Ring" Do? Your telephone company's Distinctive Ring service allows more than one number on same phone line. If you need more than one phone number, it is an inexpensive alternative to paying for an additional line. Each phone number has its own distinctive ring pattern, so you will know which phone number is ringing. This is one way you can have a separate phone number for your MFC. Note Please consult your telephone company for availability and rates. What Does Brother's "Distinctive Ring" Do? The Brother machine has a Distinctive Ring feature that allows you to use your MFC machine to take full advantage of the telephone company's Distinctive Ring service. You can dedicate the new phone number on your line to receiving only faxes. Note You must purchase your telephone company's Distinctive Ring service before you program the MFC to work with it. 6-7 SETUP RECEIVE
