Use the Personal Directory

Use the Personal Directory
The Personal Directory (available on the M3904) provides a personalized directory of names and telephone numbers. The Personal Directory allows you to add, delete, search, and edit entries and can be password protected. The Personal Directory holds up to 100 entries (an entry is one name and one telephone number). You can add a directory entry by copying the entry from your Callers List or Redial List. You can also add entries with the “AddNew” Key or by using the Personal Directory PC Utility application. The Personal Directory PC Utility uses an accessory cartridge to connect your PC and your M3904 telephone. You can create a directory on your Personal Computer and transfer it to your M3904 telephone.
