SENDING THE SAME DOCUMENT TO MULTIPLE
DESTINATIONS IN A SINGLE OPERATION
(BROADCAST TRANSMISSION)
This feature is used to send a document to multiple destinations in a single operation. The document to be
transmitted is scanned into memory and then successively transmitted to the selected destinations. This feature is
convenient for such purposes as distributing a report to company branches in different locations. Up to 500
(maximum of 300 on the AR-M351U/AR-M451U when a hard disk is not installed) destinations can be selected.
NOTES
If you frequently use broadcasting to send documents to the same group of destinations, it is convenient to
program those destinations into a group key. A group key is a one-touch key in which multiple destinations are
programmed. The procedure for programming group keys is explained on page 6-6.
When using a group key to send a fax, the destinations programmed in the group key are counted as
broadcasting destinations. For example, if five destinations are programmed in a group key and the key is
touched for a broadcast transmission, the broadcast transmission will have five destinations.
