group as your original call.

Line Preference
Line Preference determines how you place and answer calls. There are two
types of Line Preference: Incoming Line Preference and Outgoing Line
Preference. Ask your Communications Manager which type you have.
Incoming Line Preference
Incoming Line Preference sets how you answer calls. When a call rings your
phone, lifting the handset out of the desktop charger or pressing TALK answers
either the ringing call (Ringing Line Preference) or seizes an idle line (Idle Line
Preference). If you primarily answer calls and seldom place calls, Ringing Line
Preference is for you. If you normally place calls and seldom answer them, then
Idle Line Preference is for you.
Outgoing Line Preference
Outgoing Line Preference sets how you place calls. With Outgoing Intercom
Line Preference, you hear Intercom dial tone when you press TALK. With
Outgoing Trunk Line Preference, you get dial tone on an outside line when you
press TALK. If you normally call co-workers, use Outgoing Intercom Line
