Dial Access Codes and Credit Card Numbers
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.
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.
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’ if you press the following:
1. Press
[Fax] > [Address Book].
2. Swipe up or down or press a or b to display the number of Brother 1.
3. Press the number.
4. Press [Apply].
5. Press [Address Book].
6. Read and review the message on the touchscreen, and then press [OK] .
7. Swipe up or down or press a or b to display the number of Brother 2.
8. Press the number.
9. Press [Apply].
10. Press [Fax Start].
You will dial '555-7000'.
To change a number temporarily, you can substitute part of the number by 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.
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].
