    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 
    or E-mail address. 
    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/W200dpi,  
    B/W200x100, Color150dpi,  
    Color300dpi or Color600dpi if you 
    selected the E-Mail option.
    Storing a pause8
    Press Redial/Pause to insert a 2.8-second 
    pause between numbers. You can press 
    Redial/Pause as many times as needed to 
    increase the length of the pause.
    Storing one-touch dial 
    numbers8
    Your machine has 20 One-Touch keys where

    Setting up groups for 
    broadcasting8
    If you often want to send the same fax 
    message to many fax numbers you can set 
    up a group. 
    Groups are stored on a One-Touch key or a 
    Speed-Dial number. Each group uses up a 
    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 Mono Start.
    Before you can add numbers to a group, you 
    need to store them as One-Touch or Speed-
    Dial numbers. You can have up to 20 small 
    groups, or you can assign up to 339 numbers 
    to one large group.

    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 
    Mono Start or Colour 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 Mono Start or Colour Start.
    This would dial ‘555-7001’. You can also add 
    a pause by pressing the Redial/Pause key.
    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 a Touch Tone service, you 
    will not need this feature to send tone signals.
    aLift the handset of the external 
    telephone, and press Tel/R.
    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.
