shared line with distinctive ring (Case B)
It' in Step 2 you connected the Sony IJP-’V 100 to a phone line that
uses a distincti\ e ring ser\ ice through your telephone company, use
this connection diagram.
The distinctive ring telephone service, which is unavailable in many
areas, allows you to have 2 or 3 phone numbers on the same phone
line. Each number has a ring with a different pattern so you can tell
the difference between incoming calls.
For more detailed information on setting up Distinctive Ring, refer to
“Using Distinctive Ring" under “Using Advanced Fax Features and
Settings" in Chapter 3.

Connect your phone to the Sony IJP-VIOO. Connect the cord
from your phone to either of the two ports on the back of the Sony
IJP-'VlOO labelled, “To Phone, Answering Machine, or Modem.”
The main benefits of connecting a phone in this situation are 1) In
case you need to send a fax (press START) while having a conver­
sation with someone who must receive their faxes manually, and
2) For the convenience of having a phone close by to make outgo­
ing voice calls.
Important: If you have an answering machine for receiving voice
calls on this phone line (different phone number), set it to answer
after 3 or more rings. If you don’t, your Sony IJP-VIOO will not
be able to receive your fax calls.
Important: If you have a PC-modem or an external modem on this
phone line (different phone number), turn off the setting in the
modem’s software that automatically receives faxes to your com­
puter; if you don’t, your Sony IJP-VIOO will not be able to receive
faxes properly.
