7 7Auto Dial Numbers and Dialing Options

Storing Numbers for Easy Dialing

You can set up your MFC to do three types of easy dialing: One Touch, Speed Dial, and Groups for Broadcasting of faxes. You can store names with these numbers for easy identification.

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.

If you lose electrical power, auto dial numbers stored in memory will not be lost.

Storing One Touch Dial Numbers

You can store 8 fax/phone numbers that you can dial by pressing one key (and Fax Start). To access numbers 5 to 8, hold down the Shift key. When you press a One Touch dial location, the LCD shows the name or number as the call is dialed. (See One Touch Dialing, page 7-4.)

One Touch keys are the 4 keys (numbers 01–08) located on the left side of the control panel.

(For USA only) One-Touch key 1 has been pre-programmed for the Brother fax-back system.
