AUTO DIAL NUMBERS AND DIALING OPTIONS
7 - 4
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 Speed-Dial numbers. You can store these long dialing sequences by
dividing them and setting them up on separate keys 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 Fax Start. (See
Storing
Speed Dial Numbers
, page 7-1.)
You can store “555” on Speed Dial #03 and “7000” on Speed Dial #02. If you
press Search/Speed Dial, #, 0, 3, Search/Speed Dial, #, 0, 2, and 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
Search/Speed Dial, #, 0, 2 and then press 7, 0, 0, 1 on the dialing pad.
Pause
Press Redial/Pause to insert a 3.5 second pause between numbers. If you are
dialing overseas, you can press Redial/Pause as many times as needed to
increase the length of the pause.
Fax Redial
If you’re sending a fax manually and the line is busy, press Redial/Pause to
try again. Anytime you want to make a second call to the last number dialed,
press Redial/Pause to save time.
If you’re sending a fax automatically and the line is busy, the MFC will redial
automatically up to three times at 5 minute intervals.
Tone/Pulse (For Canada only)
If you have Pulse dialing service, but need to send tone signals (for example, for
telephone banking), follow the directions below. If you have Touch Tone
service, you will not need this feature to send tone signals.
1
Lift the handset of an external phone.
2
Press #. Any digits dialed after this send tone signals.
3
When you hang up, the MFC returns to pulse dialing service.
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.
