Using a Relay Network

Before you send a document to another fax for relay broadcasting, contact the
other party and confirm the following points about their fax:

½ The relay unit must support ITU-T subaddress/password transactions.
½ If you want a relay transmission report sent back to your fax from the relay

unit, instruct the relay unit to turn this feature on when they set up the relay
function on their fax.

½ Make sure the relay unit has registered the telephone numbers of all

destinations for the speed dialling buttons of the relay unit.

½ Make sure you have the correct subaddress for the other party’s fax.
½ Confirm that the subaddress you have been given has been used to set up the

other party’s fax as a relay station. Your fax can not confirm whether or not
the other party’s fax has been set up properly as a relay unit.

½ If an ITU-T password is set on the other party’s fax you must send the

document with a password. Otherwise, the other fax will not receive your
document.

After the relay fax is set up to participate in a relay network, it should receive
and relay documents automatically. By following the initial setup procedures in
the previous section, the relay fax unit can be set to confirm the identity of the
originator before sending and to send a relay transmission report to the
originator after your fax unit requests the other unit to relay a document.

When your fax unit is the originator of a relay transmission with this method, it
does not check to ensure that the fax to receive and relay the transmission is set
up properly for relay transmission. Even when the fax is not set up to relay your
documents, your fax unit reports such a transmission as a successful relay
transmission. Make sure the relay unit is set up correctly to relay documents that
it receives from your fax unit.

Sending a Document to a Relay Unit with Speed Dialling

You can register a telephone number for relay sending under a One-touch or
Coded Speed Dialling button.

Check these points before you send a document to another party for relay:

½ Contact the other party and ask for the ITU-T subaddress and password they

are using for receiving documents to relay.

½ The other party’s fax unit does not have to be a Canon fax unit, but make

sure the other party’s fax unit supports the use of ITU-T subaddresses and
passwords.
