Ringing while fax comes through

Everytime a fax comes through, the fax machine constantly rings! I've lost the handbook and need to know how to stop the ringing. I don't use it as a telephone so I don't need the ringer. Many thanks Donna-Marie

There should be a setting in the menu options, under fax setup to reduce the ring volume as well as the amount of rings before the machine picks up.

Hooking up fax to KX TG7871 Panasonic Phone
There is excellent support here on basic fax setups. You have what is known as "Distinctive Ringing Service". There are pros and cons to the various setups. I assume you recognize the rings and answer only when the ring for the landline talk comes on. The fax will pick up the faxes, and the answering machine will pick up the voice.

Need model number of your fax - google that!

This link shows various configurations of setting up your phone/fax/answering machine or using an answering service.
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&lc=en&docname=c00059780#Dist_ring
 Distinctive Ringing Service setup While it is not available everywhere, a distinctive ringing service can be purchased from most telephone companies. With this service, more than one phone number is assigned to the same phone line. Each phone number will ring differently. The main number will ring with a normal single ring and the additional number will ring with a distinctive ring pattern assigned by the phone company.
When a distinctive ringing service is used, set the Rings to Answer to 2 and then follow the steps below to set the distinctive ringing pattern:
  1. Press Setup , press 4 , and then press 1 to enter the Answer Ring Pattern setup of the Advanced Fax settings.
  2. Use the Right Arrow to scroll through the available settings. When the ring pattern assigned by the phone company displays (double or triple rings), press OK .

How do I stop my fax machine from ringing everytime the phone does?
It depends on the specific model of FAX machine, but the setting is usually called "Ringer volume"

For the Brother MFC-420N,
  1. Menu/Set, 1, 4, 1
  2. Use arrow up/down keys to select Low, Med, High or Off
  3. Press Menu/Set
  4. Press stop/exit

I can only receive faxes not send when i try to send it just keeps ringing will not transmit
If you dial a number and just hear ringing that means the other end is not answering. Even if a person or answering machine picked up the ringing would stop. The problem is at the other end.

The fax machine has a setting for the number of rings before it picks up. It's different for each model but you should find it in the manual, no problem.

How do I set up Brother 930 as fax only with BT Diverse phones in house? I already have several BT Diverse digital cordless phones working in the house, including one with answer machine. Having got the fax to work, I want to use it so that it will recognise an incoming fax but that the Diverse answer machine will take the messages. If we are out the Diverse will ring 6 times before answsering, then the 930 needs to understand it's an incoming fax. At the moment, all phones will ring but depending which handset you pick up either the 930 thinks all calls are faxes or the Diverse overrides the incoming fax signal. It may be they are not compatible because the Diversee is digital and the 920 isn't but if there's a way ...?
