Creating a contact list

You can create a contact list using the Address Book in the printer control panel or the computer through the Phone Book. If you create a contact list in the printer control panel, then the Phone Book automatically saves those contacts as Phone Book entries. Likewise, when you add contacts to the Phone Book, the printer automatically saves them to the printer Address Book.

You can save up to 89 contacts and 10 fax groups in the contact list.
