4.Type the phone number of the second person and press Enter .

5.When the second person answers the call, ask him or her to hold while you reconnect the first person.

6.Hold down the Ctrl and Shift keys then press F . You now have a 3-way conversation.

7.Take turns as you would during a two-person conversation.

WAIT FOR RESPONSE

1.When someone asks you to hold during a conversation, hold down the Ctrl key and the Shift key then press W . WAITING is displayed.

2.The Ring Flasher flashes when the other person starts typing again. Continue your conversation.

TRANSFERRING CALLS

Use the following steps as a guide for transferring calls. Telephone systems can vary, so you may need to contact your system administrator for additional instructions.

1.If you are talking to someone on the Superprint Pro80 and you need

to transfer the call press Dial to go into Dialing mode. TYPE NAME OR NUMBER is displayed.

2.Type an exclamation point ( Shift + 1 ) followed by the number of the new extension to which you are transferring the call.

For example: ! 3333

3.Press Enter to dial the number.

4.When the second person answers the call, inform him or her that you are transferring a call and ask him or her to hold while you transfer the call.

5.Press On/Off to hangup your Superprint Pro80 and complete the transfer.

You can also hold down the Ctrl key and press the Esc button. This will hang up the call without turning off the Superprint Pro80.

Use Baudot code for 3-way calling.

Whenever you use 3- way calling, be sure that all three TTYs are using Baudot code (see “Code” on page 43). To change to Baudot, hold down the Ctrl and Shift keys then press

B.

What is Wait for Response?

This function frees you from having to stare at the display when the person on the other end of the line asks you to hold. If someone asks you to hold during a conversation, turn on Wait for Response. Now, the Ring Flasher will flash when the other person starts typ- ing again.

Most systems re- quire a “hook flash” to transfer calls.

Office telephone sys- tems vary widely but most will require the hook flash. To dial a hook flash on the Superprint Pro80, dial an exclamation point ( ! ).
