Receiving Faxes Using the DRPD Mode
The DRPD is a telephone company service which allows 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 the button until
System
is highlighted, and then press the
(Set)
button.
3
Press the button until

To receive faxes in the DRPD, you need to set the menu to DRPD mode; see "Available Fax Settings Options" on
page 224.
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.
