Broadcasting
Broadcasting is automatically sending the same fax message to multiple fax
numbers. Using the Broadcast key, you can include Groups, One Touch
locations, Speed Dial locations, plus up to 50 manually dialed numbers.
However, available memory will vary with the types of jobs in memory and the
number of locations used for broadcasting. If you broadcast to more than the
maximum locations available, you will not be able to set up transmissions using
dual access and the timer. (See
Setting Up Groups for Broadcasting , page 7-2.)
The easiest way to broadcast is to press Group keys, you can include One Touch,
Speed Dial, and manually, dialed numbers in the same broadcast. You must
press Broadcast between each of these locations. Use the Telephone Index to
help you choose the numbers easily.
After the broadcast is completed, a Broadcast Report will be printed
automatically to let you know the results.
■
To stop the broadcasting in progress, press Stop/Exit. The LCD asks if you
want to cancel all locations or only the location that is being sent.
■
Enter the long dialing sequence numbers as you normally would. Keep in mind
that each key counts as one location, so the number of locations you can call
becomes limited.
■
If the line is busy or for other reasons a connection could not be made while
broadcasting, the MFC will redial the number automatically.
■
If the memory is full, press Stop/Exit to abort the job; or, if more than one page
has been scanned, press Fax Start to send the portion that is in the memory.
