Canon PIXMA MX892 Phone Line Configuration - Page 11

What is a Distinctive Ring Pattern? 1. When you subscribe to distinctive ring pattern service with your phone company, you will be provided an additional phone number. 2. You will not receive an additional phone line, instead you will have two different numbers that will work on your existing phone line. 3. The new number will have a ring pattern that is different from a standard phone ring. For example, it may ring twice quickly followed by a pause (Ring-Ring-pause). A standard ring pattern is one long ring (ringing will be heard for 2 seconds) and a long pause (for approximate 4 seconds). 4. If someone dials your original number you will hear a standard phone ring pattern. If someone dials your distinctive ring number you will hear an alternative ring pattern. 5. Your phone company will assign the ring pattern for your service. Open the DRPD Setup Instructions Return to Previous Page
