    Storing numbers8
    You can set up your machine to do the 
    following types of easy dialling: One Touch, 
    Speed Dial and Groups for Broadcasting 
    faxes. You can also specify the default 
    resolution for each One Touch and 
    Speed Dial number. When you dial a 
    quick dial number, the LCD shows the name, 
    if you stored it, or the number. A scan profile 
    can also be stored along with the fax number.
    If you lose electrical power, the quick dial 
    numbers stored in the memory will not be lost.
    A scan profile is the resolution and other scan 
    settings that you choose when you store a 
    number. For example, you will be asked to 
    select Standard, Fine, S.Fine or Photo if you 
    have selected the Fax/Tel option. Or, you will 
    be asked to select B/W 200 dpi, 
    B/W 200x100 dpi, Gray 100dpi, Gray 200dpi,

    message to many fax numbers you can set

    One Touch key or a Speed Dial location. You 
    can then send the fax message to all the 
    numbers stored in a group just by pressing a 
    One Touch key or entering a Speed Dial 
    number, and then pressing Start.
    Before you can add numbers to a group, you

    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 from another long distance 
    carrier.
    For example, you might have stored ‘555’ on 
    Speed Dial #003 and ‘7000’ on Speed Dial 
    #002. You can use them both to dial 
    ‘555-7000’ if you press the following keys:
    Hold down Shift as you press 
    Search/Speed Dial, 003. Hold down Shift as 
    you press Search/Speed Dial, 002 and 
    Start.
    Numbers can be added manually by entering 
    them on the dial pad:
    Hold down Shift as you press 
    Search/Speed Dial, 003, 7001 (on the dial 
    pad), and Start.
    This would dial ‘555-7001’. You can also add 
    a pause by pressing Redial/Pause.
    Tone or Pulse8
    If you have a Pulse dialling service, but need 
    to send Tone signals (for example, for 
    telephone banking), follow the instructions 
    below. If you have Touch Tone service, you 
    will not need this feature to send tone signals.
    aLift the handset of the external 
    telephone.
    bPress # on the machine’s control panel. 
    Any digits dialled after this will send tone 
    signals.
    When you hang up, the machine will 
    return to the Pulse dialling service.
