Telephone Services
Custom Feature
Your MFC supports the Distinctive Ring and Caller ID telephone services
offered by some telephone companies.
Distinctive Ring
The term “Distinctive Ring” is used by Brother to identify a phone company
service that is given many names, depending on the telephone company you are
using. For example, this service may be called SmartRing, RingMaster, Teen-
Ring, Indent-a-Call or Indent-a-Ring.
What Does Your Telephone Company’s “Distinctive Ring” Do?
Your telephone company’s Distinctive Ring service allows more than one
number to be on the same phone line. If you need more than one phone
number, it is an inexpensive alternative to paying for an additional line.
Each phone number has its own distinctive ring pattern, so you will know which
phone number is ringing. This is one way you can have a separate phone number
for your MFC.
What Does Brother’s “Distinctive Ring” Do?
The Brother MFC has a Distinctive Ring feature that allows you to use your
MFC to take full advantage of the telephone company’s Distinctive Ring
service. You can dedicate the new phone number on your line to receiving only
faxes.
If you have Voice Mail, Call Waiting, Call Waiting/Caller ID, RingMaster, an
answering service, or on alarm system custom feature on your telephone line,
it may create a problem in the operation of your MFC.
If you have Voice Mail on you phone line, please read the following carefully.
Note
Please consult your telephone company for availability and rates.
Note
You must purchase your telephone company’s Distinctive Ring service before
you program the Brother MFC to work with it.
