Broadcasting
Broadcasting is automatically sending the same fax message to multiple fax
numbers. Using the Broadcast key, you can include Groups locations, Speed
Dial locations and up to 50 manually dialed numbers. If you did not use up any
locations for Groups, access codes or credit card numbers, you can "broadcast"
faxes automatically to up to 150 different locations from the MFC. However,
available memory will vary with all types of jobs in memory and numbers 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.
The easiest way to broadcast is to press Group keys. You can include Speed Dial
and manually dialed numbers in the same broadcast. (See
Setting Up Groups for
Broadcasting , page 7-2.)
You must press Broadcast between each of these locations.
Use the Search/Speed Dial to help you choose the numbers easily.
After the broadcast is finished, a Broadcast Report will be printed automatically
to let you know the results.
■
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; if more than one page
has been scanned, press Fax Start to send the portion that is in the memory.
