Faxing
Creating shortcuts
Instead of entering the entire phone number of a fax recipient on the control panel each time you want to send a fax, you can create a permanent fax destination and assign a shortcut number. A single shortcut number or a multiple number shortcut can be created. There are two methods for creating shortcut numbers: from a computer or from the MFP touch screen.
From a computer
1Enter the IP address of the MFP in the address line of your Web browser. If you do not know the IP address, see your administrator.
2Click Configuration (in the left frame of your browser window), and then click Manage Destinations (in the right frame of your browser window).
Note: A password may be required. If you do not have an ID and password, get one from your system support person.
3Click Fax Shortcut Setup.
4Enter a unique name for the shortcut, and specify the fax number.
To create a multiple number shortcut, enter the fax numbers for the group.
Note: Separate each fax number in the group with a semicolon (;).
5Assign a shortcut number.
If you enter a number that is already in use, you are prompted to select another number.
6Click Add.
7Go to the MFP, and load your original document in the ADF face up. Labels on the ADF show how to load the paper based on its size.
8From the numeric keypad, press #, and then enter your shortcut number.
9Touch Fax It.
