NOTE
• (USA only) If you redial from the Caller ID
history outside your area code, you must
set up your AREA CODE in advance.
(See Setting up your area code (USA
only) on page 33.)
• You can print the Caller ID history List.

Dialing access codes and
credit card numbers
5
Sometimes, you may want to choose from
several long-distance carriers when you send
a fax. Rates may vary depending on the time
and destination. To take advantage of low
rates, you can store the access codes of long-
distance carriers and credit card numbers as
Address Book numbers. (See Basic User’s
Guide: Storing Address Book numbers.)
You can store these long dialing sequences
by dividing them and setting them up as
separate Address Book numbers in any
combination.
You can even include manual dialing using
the dial pad.
For example, you might have stored ‘555’ on
Address Book: Brother 1 and ‘7000’ on
Address Book: Brother 2. You can use them
both to dial ‘555-7000’ as shown in the
following example:
a
Press (Fax).
b
Press (Address Book).
c
Press a or b to display the number of
Brother 1.
d
Press the number.
e
Press Apply.
f
Press Options.
g
Press a or b to display Address Book.
h
Press Address Book.
i
Press a or b to display the number of
Brother 2.
j
Press the number.
k
Press Apply.
l
Press Fax Start.
You will dial ‘555-7000’.
To temporarily change a number, you can
substitute part of the number with manual
dialing using the dial pad. For example, to
change the number to 555-7001, you could
enter the number (Brother 1: 555) using
(Address Book), press Apply, and
then press 7001 using the dial pad.
NOTE
If you must wait for another dial tone or
signal at any point in the dialing sequence,
create a pause in the number by pressing
Pause. Each key press adds a
3.5-second delay. You can press Pause
as many times as needed to increase the
length of the pause.
