Setting Up Groups for Broadcasting
Groups allow you to send the same fax message to many fax numbers by
pressing only one One Touch Group key (and
Start ). First, you’ll need to
store each fax number as a One Touch or Speed Dial number. Then, you can
combine them into a Group. Each Group uses up a One Touch key. Finally,
you can have up to six small Groups, or you can assign up to 131 numbers to
one large Group.
You can include up to 31 One Touch keys, and up to 100 Speed Dial
numbers. If you broadcast to more than the maximum locations available,
you will be unable to set up transmissions using Dual Access and the Timer.
