Broadcasting
Broadcasting is automatically sending the same fax message to multiple fax
numbers. Using the
Broadcast key, you can include up to 16 (FAX 2600), 8
(MFC 4600) One Touch locations, up to 30 Speed Dial locations, and up to 50
manually dialed numbers (maximum of 96 (FAX 2600) or 88 (MFC 4600)
locations if you did not use up any locations for Groups, access codes or credit
card 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 7-3.)
Although 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.

Note
To stop the broadcasting in progress, press Stop . The LCD asks if you want
to cancel all locations or the location that is being sent.
■ Enter the long dialing sequence numbers as you normally would, but keep in mind
that each key counts as one location, so the number of locations you can call
become limited.
■ If the line is busy or for some other reasons a connection could not be made while
broadcasting, the FAX/MFC will redial the number automatically.
■ If the memory is full, press Stop to abort the job or press Stop to send the portion
that is in the memory (if more than one page has been scanned).
