This feature of the machine lets you use the BT Call Sign subscriber service which allows you to have at least two separate telephone numbers on one telephone line. Each telephone number has its own distinctive ringing pattern, so you know which telephone number is ringing. This is one way you can have a separate telephone number for your machine.

Combining Address Book numbers 5

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 long­distance carriers and credit card numbers as Address Book numbers. (See Basic User’s Guide: Storing Address Book numbers.)
You can store these long dialling sequences by dividing them and setting them up as separate Address Book numbers in any combination.
You can even include manual dialling using the dial pad.
For example, you might have stored ‘01632’ on Address Book: Brother 1 and ‘960555’ on Address Book: Brother 2. You can use them both to dial ‘01632-960555’ as shown in the following example:
j Press the number.
5
k Press Apply. l Press Fax Start.
You will dial ‘01632-960555’.
To temporarily change a number, you can substitute part of the number with manual dialling using the dial pad. For example, to change the number to 01632-960556, you could enter the number (Brother 1: 01632)
using (Address Book), press Apply,
and then press 960556 using the dial pad.
If you must wait for another dial tone or signal at any point in the dialling sequence, create a pause in the number by pressing Pause. Each key press adds a 3.5 second delay. You can press Pause as many times as needed to increase the length of the pause.

Memory cards, USB Flash drives and folder structures 8

Your machine is designed to be compatible with modern digital camera image files, memory cards and USB Flash drives; however, please read the bullet points to avoid errors:
The image file extension must be .JPG
(other image file extensions like .JPEG, .TIF, .GIF and so on will not be recognized).
Direct PhotoCapture Center™ printing
must be performed separately from PhotoCapture Center™ operations using the PC. (Simultaneous operation is not available.)

Please be aware of the following:
8
When printing an index or image, the
PhotoCapture Center™ will print all the valid images, even if one or more images have been corrupted. Corrupted images will not be printed.
(memory card users)
Your machine is designed to read memory cards that have been formatted by a digital camera.
When a digital camera formats a memory card, it creates a special folder into which it copies image data. If you need to modify the image data stored on a memory card with your PC, we recommend that you do not modify the folder structure created by the digital camera. When saving new or modified image files to the memory card, we also recommend you use the same folder your digital camera uses. If the data is not saved to the same folder, the machine may not be able to read the file or print the image.
(USB Flash drive users)
This machine supports USB Flash drives
that have been formatted by Windows

The machine can read up to 999 files
