Receiving Faxes Using the DRPD
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 button until System Setup is highlighted, and then press the
(Set) button.
3 Press button until Admin Menu is highlighted, and then press the
(Set) button.
4 Press button until Fax Settings is highlighted, and then press the
(Set) button.
5 Press button until DRPD Pattern is highlighted, and then press the
(Set) button.
6 Press or button until the desired pattern is highlighted, and then press
the (Set) button.
7 Reboot the printer by turning the power switch off and then on again.
To receive faxes in the DRPD, you need to set the menu to DRPD. For
details, see "Available Fax Settings Options."
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.
Receiving Faxes in the Memory
Since your printer is a multi-tasking device, it can receive faxes while you are
making copies or printing. If you receive a fax while you are copying, printing,
or run out of paper or toner, your printer stores incoming faxes in the memory.
Then, as soon as you finish copying, printing, or re-supply the consumables, the
printer automatically prints the fax.
