Chain Dial
Chain dial is a function that allows you to dial by linking fax numbers of the receiving systems with a chain
number created with a number common to several destinations.
By setting multiple phone numbers from several telephone companies to a chain number, you can later choose
the one that costs the least to send the fax to a remote or international destination.
NOTE: You can use the chain number at the head of the fax number of the receiving system.
It is convenient to register chain numbers that are used frequently to the Address Book or One-touch keys. For
registration to the Address Book, refer to Registering a New Destination on page 2-5. For registration to One-
touch keys, refer to Registering a New One-touch Key on page 2-14.

One-touch Keys on page 2-14.
