Which Phone Number Should I Register?

It is a good idea to keep your old number for its original purpose and to register the
new number as your fax number. Remember to give the new fax number to your
customers and colleagues.

What Must I Do to Set Up Distinctive Ringing?

To use the Distinctive Ringing feature you must:

1. Get the distinctive ringing service from your telephone carrier.

2. When your distinctive ringing number is available, register it in the function called

“Setting the Distinctive Ringing Function”.

3. Keep the MFC in Manual answer mode (both Fax and F/T lights turned off) if you

want to answer the main number yourself. Keep the MFC in MSG CTR answer
mode (both Fax and F/T lights lit) if you want the Message Center to answer the

main number(s).

Setting the Distinctive Ringing Function__________________________

This function is a one-time procedure to register a distinctive ringing number with
your MFC. Your MFC will answer the registered number automatically, simulating
Fax mode on a dedicated fax line. You can register only one number. Do not try to
set up this function if you do not have the distinctive ringing service. It may
cause yonr MFC to malfunction.

This procedure is in two parts: First, you must put the MFC in SET mode; D/R SET
MODE will be on the display screen. Second, you must wait for a friend to call the

distinctive ringing number so you can register the ringing pattern. When a call comes
in, do not pick up the handset until the MFC’s display says PICK UP TO SET. Then pick
up the handset. If the caller dialed your distinctive ringing number, press the Start key
and check that the display says REGISTERED before you hang up. If the caller dialed
the other number, press the Stop key and hang up to try ^ain.

Before you begin this function:

1. If your MFC is connected to a telephone answering device or to the telephone

company’s Voice Mail system, disconnect it before you begin this function,

2. Have a friend ready to call your distinctive ringing number.
