Advanced features
The fastest way to fax one document to many recipients is to broadcast i t .
In an ordinary broadcast, you send the fax as you normally would, except you just add
more fax numbers. You can enter up to 230 numbers:
30 manually-dialed numbers A N D
200 autodialer numbers O R 1 call group with all 200 autodialer numbers
You can broadcast using any function that requires a fax number to be entered.
That means you can send a delayed broadcast, program a polling broadcast and even
broadcast to hub units for F-Code relay broadcast initiation.
All of these are explained
in this chapter.
To send a broadcast fax:
1 Insert the document and make any necessary adjustments as you would for a
regular fax transmission.
2 Press B R O A D C A S T .
3 Enter the first fax number, as usual. Use either a one-touch number, a speed-dial
number, a call group or a regular number dialed from the numeric keypad.
4 To add more fax numbers, press B R O A D C A S T between each one to insert a comma.
Then enter the number as described in step 3 (pressing G R O U P inserts its own comma).
You can send to up to 230 numbers for a broadcast.
Important: Do not insert a comma after the last fax number.
Note: If you enter characters by mistake, press C A N C E L to erase them.

it to each number or call group you ve entered.
