Set a dialing prefix

A dial prefix 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

prefix is 50.

The default setting is

Off

. You might want to turn this setting on and enter a prefix if, for example, you have

to dial a number such as 9 to get a telephone line outside of your company telephone system. While this

setting is active, you can dial a fax number without the dial prefix by using manual dial.
