NOTE

If you do not press any button for more than a minute, the display returns to standby.

You can store up to 50 names and numbers in the Directory.

The Directory will automatically keep a list of all outgoing phone and fax calls you make (except those already stored in the One Touch buttons), so you can store a number already called and simply add a name to it.

Unless you deliberately store a number, the Directory only keeps a list of the latest numbers dialled up to a total of 50 numbers.

If you dial the same number more than once, your PaperJet 300 will only keep a record of the last time it is dialled. Once 50 different number have been listed, any new numbers will replace the oldest previous number.

You can delete entries from the Directory list, transfer them to One Touch buttons or store them as permanent entries.
