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 fax machine.
Please consult your telephone company for availability and rates.
