If you have Voice Mail or a TAD (Telephone Answering Device) and want to 
keep one of your phone numbers dedicated only to fax calls, you must leave the 
MFC in 

 mode at all times while using the Distinctive Ring Feature. 

Here’s why: 

 mode will never pick up a call by itself, since it is 

«Neutral». When the MFC is in this «neutral» mode, the Distinctive Ring 
Feature can be activated. The distinctive ring feature is actually an answering 
mode. So, do not activate 

 mode or 

 mode while 

using distinctive ring; otherwise, the fax machine will answer calls for all the 
numbers.

Set the MFC to 

 mode.

Press Menu/Set, 2, 0, 1.

Press

 

 

to select 

, and then press Menu/Set.

Press

 

 

to select the prestored ring pattern you want to assign, and then press 

Menu/Set. (You will hear each pattern as you scoll through the four patterns.) 
Be sure to choose the pattern assigned by the Telephone Company.

Press Stop/Exit.

After a few rings, the LCD shows the telephone number of your caller (or name, 
if available). Once you pick up the handset, the Caller ID information disappears 
from the LCD, but the call information remains stored in the Caller ID memory.

 display means call originates outside your Caller ID service 

area.

■

 display means the caller has intentionally blocked 

transmission of information.

■

 display remains on the LCD when no Caller ID information 

was transmitted. 

If both the name and number are received, the LCD shows only the name.  You 
can print a list of Caller ID information received by your MFC. (See 

The Caller ID feature lets you use the Caller ID subscriber service offered by 
many local telephone companies. This service provides you, by means of the 
LCD, the name or telephone number of your caller as the line rings.
