    Printing a program list Your machine can also print a program list. This list gives a brief summary of instructions available on your fax machine, organized in a “program tree” so you can see which key combinations produce which instructions.

  • Page 42: Autodialer

    Your fax machine’s autodialer will hold both fax numbers and phone numbers. This is possible because your fax machine first checks to see if there’s a document in the feeder. If there is, the machine dials as a fax machine. If there isn’t, it dials as a telephone.
