AUTO DIAL NUMBERS AND DIALING OPTIONS
Access Codes and Credit Card Numbers
Sometimes you may want to choose from among several long distance carriers
when you make a call. Rates may vary depending upon the time and destination.
To take advantage of low rates, you can store the access codes or long-distance
carriers as One Touch and Speed Dial numbers. You can store these long dialing
sequences by dividing them and setting them up separately in any combination.
You can even include manual dialing using the dial pad. The combined number
will be dialed in the order you entered it, as soon as you press Black Fax Start.
(See
Storing One Touch Dial Numbers, page 8-1.)
You store “555” on One Touch key 3 and “7000” on One Touch key 4. If you
press One Touch 3, 4 and Black Fax Start you can dial “555-7000”. To
temporarily change a number, you can substitute part of the number with manual
dialing using the dial pad. For example, to change the number to 555-7001 you
could press One Touch 3 and then press 7, 0, 0, 1 using the dialing pad.
Broadcasting (Not Available for Color Faxes)
Broadcasting is automatically sending the same fax message to multiple fax
numbers. Using the Menu/Set key, you can include Groups, One Touch
locations, Speed Dial locations plus up to 50 manually dialed numbers. If you
did not use up any locations for Groups, access codes or credit card numbers,
you can "broadcast" faxes automatically to up to 162 different locations from
the fax machine. However, available memory will vary with all types of jobs in
memory and numbers of locations used for broadcasting. If you broadcast to
more than the maximum locations available, you will not be able to set up
transmissions using dual access and the timer.
The easiest way to broadcast is to press Group keys. You can include One
Touch, Speed Dial, and manually dialed numbers in the same broadcast. (See
Setting Up Groups for Broadcasting, page 8-3.)
You must press Menu/Set between each of these locations.
Use the Search/Speed Dial to help you choose the numbers easily.
After the broadcast is finished, a Broadcast Report will be printed automatically
to let you know the results.
■ To stop the broadcast in progress, press Stop/Exit. The LCD asks if you want
to cancel the location that is being sent.
■ Enter the long dialing sequence numbers as you normally would, but keep in
mind that each key counts as one location, so the number of locations you can
call becomes limited.
■ If the line is busy or for other reasons a connection could not be made while
broadcasting, the fax machine will redial the number automatically.
Note
If you must wait for another dial tone at any point in the dialing sequence, store
a pause at that point in the number by pressing Redial/Pause. Each key press
adds a 3.5 second delay.
