    Fax Redial8
    If you are sending a fax manually and the line 
    is busy, press Redial/Pause, and then press 
    Mono Start or Colour Start to try again. If 
    you want to make a second call to the last 
    number dialled, you can save time by 
    pressing Redial/Pause and Mono Start or 
    Colour Start. 
    Redial/Pause only works if you dialled from 
    the control panel.
    If you are sending a fax automatically and the 
    line is busy, the machine will automatically 
    redial up to three times at five minute 
    intervals.
    Note
    In Real Time Transmission the automatic 
    redial feature does not work when using 
    the scanner glass.
     
    Storing numbers8
    You can set up your machine to do the 
    following types of easy dialling: Speed-Dial 
    and Groups for broadcasting faxes. When 
    you dial a Quick-Dial number, the LCD shows 
    the name, if you stored it, or the number.
    Note
    If you lose electrical power, the Quick-Dial 
    numbers that are in the memory will not be 
    lost.
     
    Storing a pause8
    Press Redial/Pause to put a 3.5-second 
    pause between numbers. If you are dialling 
    overseas, you can press Redial/Pause as 
    many times as needed to increase the length 
    of the pause.
    Storing Speed-Dial numbers8
    You can store up to 40 2-digit Speed-Dial 
    locations with a name. When you dial you will 
    only have to press a few keys (For example: 
    Search/Speed Dial, #, the two-digit number, 
    and Mono Start or Colour Start).
    aPress Menu, 2, 3, 1.
    bUse the dial pad to enter a 2-digit 
    Speed-Dial location number (01-40).

    Changing Speed-Dial 
    numbers8
    If you try to store a Speed-Dial number where 
    a number has already been stored, the LCD 
    will show the name or number that has been 
    stored there, and will ask you to do one of the 
    following: 
    „Press 1 to change the stored number.
     
    #05:Mike
     
    1.Change 2.Exit

    position the cursor under the character 
    you want to change, then press 
    Clear/Back. Re-enter the character.
    „To finish the setting, press Stop/Exit.
    Setting up groups for 
    broadcasting8
    If you regularly want to send the same fax 
    message to many fax numbers you can set 
    up a Group. Groups are stored on a Speed-
    Dial number. Each group uses up a Speed-
    Dial location. You can then send the fax 
    message to all the numbers stored in a group 
    just by entering a Speed-Dial number, and 
    then pressing Mono Start.
    Before you can add numbers to a Group, you 
    need to store them as Speed-Dial numbers. 
    You can have up to six small Groups, or you 
    can assign up to 39 numbers to one large 
    Group.
    aPress Menu, 2, 3, 2.

    cUse the dial pad to enter a Group 
    number (1 to 6).
    Press OK.

    ePress OK when you have finished 
    adding numbers.
    fUse the dial pad to enter a name for the 
    Group.

    gPress Stop/Exit.

    You can easily print a list of all your 
    Speed-Dial numbers. Numbers that are 
    part of a group will be marked in the 
    GROUP column. (See How to print a 
    report on page 45.)

    8 Combining Quick-Dial 
    numbers8
    You can combine more than one Quick-Dial 
    number when you dial. This feature may be 
    useful if you need to dial an access code for 
    a cheaper rate long distance carrier.
    For example, you might have stored ‘555’ on 
    Speed-Dial #03 and ‘7000’ on Speed-Dial 
    #02. You can use them both to dial ‘555-7000’ 
    if you press the following keys:
    Search/Speed Dial, #03, 
    Search/Speed Dial, #02, and Start.
    Numbers can be added manually by entering 
    them on the dial pad:
    Search/Speed Dial, #03, 7, 0, 0, 1 (on the 
    dial pad), and Start.
    This would dial ‘555–7001’. You can also add 
    a pause by pressing the Redial/Pause key.

    Fax reports9
    You need to set up the Transmission 
    Verification Report and Journal Period using 
    the Menu key.
    Transmission Verification 
    Report9
    You can use the Transmission Report as 
    proof that you sent a fax. This report lists the 
    time and date of transmission and whether 
    the transmission was successful (OK). If you 
    choose On or On+Image, the report will print 
    for every fax you send.
    If you send a lot of faxes to the same place, 
    you may need more than the job numbers to 
    know which faxes you must send again. 
    Choosing On+Image or Off+Image will print 
    a section of the faxs first page on the report 
    to help you remember.
    When the Verification Report is turned Off or 
    Off+Image, the Report will only print if there 
    is a transmission error, with NG in the 
    RESULT column.

    Fax Journal (activity report)9
    You can set the machine to print a journal at 
    specific intervals (every 50 faxes, 6, 12 or 24 
    hours, 2 or 7 days). If you set the interval to 
    Off, you can still print the report How to print 
    a report on page 45. The default setting is 
    Every 50 Faxes.
    aPress Menu, 2, 4, 2.
    bPress a or b to choose an interval.
    Press OK.
    (If you choose 7 days, the LCD will ask 
    you to choose the first day for the 7-day 
    countdown.)
    „6, 12, 24 hours, 2 or 7 days
    The machine will print the report at 
    the chosen time and then erase all 
    jobs from its memory. If the 
    machines memory becomes full with 
    200 jobs before the time you chose 
    has passed, the machine will print 
    the Journal early and then erase all 
    jobs from the memory. If you want an 
    extra report before it is due to print, 
    you can print it without erasing the 
    jobs from the memory.
    „Every 50 Faxes
    The machine will print the Journal 
    when the machine has stored 50 
    jobs.
    cEnter the time to start printing in 24-hour
