internationally or connecting to an outside line.
To access these symbols, touch the * character on the keypad. Then, touch one of the following buttons:

This character causes the product to insert a hook ash.
Set a dialing prex
A dial prex is a number or group of numbers that are automatically added to the beginning of every fax
number you enter at the control panel or from the software. The maximum number of characters for a dial
prex is 50.

is active, you can dial a fax number without the dial prex by using manual dial.
1. Open the control panel dashboard (swipe the dashboard tab at the top of any screen downward, or
touch the strip at the top of the home screen).
2. On the control panel dashboard, touch (Setup).
3. Touch Fax Setup, and then touch Preferences.
4. Touch Dialing Prex , and turn it on.
5. Use the keypad to enter the prex, and then touch the Done button. You can use numbers, pauses, and
dialing symbols.
