telephone numbers on one telephone line, with each telephone number having a different ring pattern. This
may be useful for distinguishing between fax and voice calls. If you subscribe to a distinctive ring service, then
follow these steps to connect the equipment:
1
Connect one end of the telephone cable that came with the printer to the printer LINE port .
2
Connect the other end of the telephone cable to an active analog telephone wall jack.
3
Change the distinctive rings setting to match the setting you want for the printer to answer.
Note: The factory default setting for distinctive rings is On. This sets the printer to answer single, double,
and triple ring patterns.
