s in the next few p ages.
The EasyDial directory is discussed in det ail on p age 3.8.
Call group s
As you set up your autodialer, you may also want to set up call groups. These are sets of
phone numbers that make it easy to send the same fax to many different locations. For
example, one call group may include all of your client s in one city, another group may
include all of your employees and another may include all your vendors.
Your fax machine can store as many as 200 numbers in up to 32 call group s.
See also Call group dialing, p age 3.7.
S pecial Dialing Characters
Your fax machine allows you to enter special dialing characters when programming the
autodialer. These characters include hyphens, which make phone numbers easier to
read, and special characters needed for international calls.
The chart below briefly describes each of these characters. It also tells you what keys to
press on your fax machine to store those characters in your autodialer:
