The remote receive code is set to Off at the factory. You can change the two-

The DRPD is a telephone company service which enables a user to use a 

single telephone line to answer several different telephone numbers. The 

particular number someone uses to call you on is identified by different 

ringing patterns, which consist of various combinations of long and short 

ringing sounds.
Before using the Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection option, Distinctive Ring 

service must be installed on your telephone line by the telephone company. 

To set up Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection, you will need another 

telephone line at your location, or someone available to dial your FAX 

number from outside. 
To set up the DRPD:

1 Press the 

 (Menu) button.

2 Press the 

 button until System is highlighted, and then press the 

 

button.

3 Press the 

 button until Admin Menu is highlighted, and then press 

the  

button.

button.

 button until DRPD Pattern is highlighted, and then press 

the  

button.

6 Press the 

 button until the desired menu item is highlighted, and then 

press the 

 button.

7 To return to the previous screen, press the   (Back) button.

To receive faxes in the DRPD, you need to set the menu to DRPD Mode; see 

"Available Fax Settings Options" on page 291.
Your printer provides seven DRPD patterns. If this service is available from 

your telephone company, ask your telephone company which pattern you 

need to select to use this service.
