Press ENTER to save the number.
4 The LCD now asks you to enter your fax number as you want it to appear on other fax machines’ displays or printouts. The fax industry term for this num- ber is Subscriber ID.
Your Fax Number
5 Use the numeric keypad to enter the desired number. To put in a dash for easier reading, as shown here, press HOLD/DIALING OPTIONS once. The number may contain up to 20 characters (numbers and dashes).
Your Fax Number 972-555-5525_
Note: If you make a mistake, press CANCEL to erase leftward. Or, if you want to change just one character in the number, press to move the cur- sor leftward, or , to move it rightward, to that character and press CANCEL to erase it. Then re-enter until the fax number is just as you want it.

7 The LCD now asks you to enter the name you want to appear at the top of faxes you send. The name may be up to 22 characters in length.
Important: You enter letters and other non-numeric characters through the one-touch keys.
Your Name :Upper
_
The word “Upper” means the machine is currently set for entering only upper-case letters. If you press R, the machine will see it as an R (not an r).
To change it so that pressing a one-touch key will produce a lower-case letter rather than an upper-case letter, press U2/abc. The display will change to:
Your Name :Lower
_
This means pressing one-touch keys will enter lower-case letters: pressing R will produce an r (not an R) on the display.
To switch back for upper-case entries, press U1/ABC.
To enter spaces, punctuation and symbols, press U3/SYMBOL. This lets you enter the blue characters shown on the one-touch keypad.
Getting started
In “Beyond the Basics,” we’ll show you how to use the CODE function to enter a wide variety of characters (see page 2.3). For now, however, become familiar with the ABC, abc and SYMBOL keys.
Note: If you make a mistake, press CANCEL to erase leftward. Or, if you want to change just one character in the name, press to move the cursor leftward, or , to move it rightward, to that character and press CAN- CEL to erase it. Then re-enter until the name is just as you want it.
8 Press ENTER to save the setting and continue.
9 The LCD now indicates the type of dialing, tone or pulse, for which your fax machine is set:
Phone Type: Tone
Program/Enter
If the setting you see is acceptable, skip to step 11.
Otherwise, proceed to step 10.
10 To change the setting, press PROGRAM once or twice until your choice appears (here, we’ve changed the setting to Pulse mode):
Phone Type: Pulse
Program/Enter
11 Press ENTER to save the setting.
You’re all done!
