Using Different Fax and Telephone Numbers
(D.R.D. Reception) [Available in inch versions
only]
This reception mode utilizes the Distinctive Ring Pattern service
available from some telephone companies. With this service, you can
use two or more telephone numbers on a single telephone line. Thus,
you can use this fax and a telephone on the same line, but you can still
designate a different telephone number for each of them. As each
number is given a different ring pattern, the fax machine is able to
differentiate between incoming calls. If one of these numbers is
designated for this fax machine, and the desired ring pattern is
designated for that number in advance, fax reception will be initiated
automatically whenever the machine detects the ring pattern distinctive
to the fax.
