Search Key Dialing

If you are not sure which One Touch key or Auto Dial number contains the location you want to call, use the Search key to look through an alphabetical list of all of the Location IDs programmed into your fax machine.

1When selecting locations, press the Search key. The display shows

ENTER 1’ST CHAR.

2Repeatedly press the Search key to look through the entire list of locations in alphabetical order, or locate the letter you want on the numeric keypad, and press that key repeatedly to look through Location IDs beginning with that letter.

Redialing

If the line is busy or if there is no answer, your fax machine waits, and then automatically redials the number. The dial parameter settings determine how many times it redials and how long it waits between attempts. Refer to the “Dial Parameters Settings” section of this handbook.

If your fax machine is transmitting from memory and a communication error occurs, it automatically redials the number and tries to resend the fax.

You can redial a number manually at any time by pressing the Redial key.

!If a power loss occurs, the redial information is lost. Refer to the ”Basic Faxing Operations, Power Failures

and Memory” section of this handbook.

Real-Time Dialing

Normally, your fax machine dials the entire number of the location you have selected at one time. Occasionally, you may need to dial numbers in real time—one digit at a time.

If your fax machine is equipped with a handset, you can dial in real time by picking up the handset, or you can press the Hook/Voice Request key.

Confirming Results

After transmission, press the Copy key once (with no documents loaded) to see the result of your transmission (Message Confirmation [MCF]) on the display. To print the MCF report, press the Copy key a second time. Refer to the “Reports” section of this handbook.
