Making a CallYou can use your machine to make voice telephone calls, by dialling manually or by using One Touch or Speed Dial memory. You can use the handset or if you have FAX-737MC you can use the Speakerphone to make and receive calls. For more details, see Dialling a Number, page 21.
The “full-duplex” digital Speakerphone allows you to operate the phone hands free, or allows more than one person in the room to participate in a two-way phone conversation. When using the Speakerphone, make sure that you speak clearly. If the other party has difficulty hearing you, move closer to the microphone or use the handset.
