broadcasting 8
If you regularly want to send the same fax
message to many fax numbers you can set
up a Group. Groups are stored on a

Speed Dial location. You can then send the
fax message to all the numbers stored in a
group just by entering a Speed Dial number,
and then pressing Black Start.
Before you can add numbers to a Group, you
need to store them as Speed Dial numbers.
You can have up to six small Groups, or you
can assign up to 39 numbers to one large
Group.

Dialing access codes and
credit card numbers 8
Sometimes you may want to choose from
several long distance carriers when you send
a fax. Rates may vary depending on the time
and destination. To take advantage of low
rates, you can store the access codes of long-
distance carriers and credit card numbers as
Speed Dial numbers. You can store these
long dialing sequences by dividing them and
setting them up as separate Speed Dial
numbers in any combination. You can even
include manual dialing using the dial pad.
(See Storing Speed Dial numbers
on page 53.)
For example, you might have stored ‘555’ on
Speed Dial #03 and ‘7000’ on Speed Dial
#02. You can use them both to dial ‘555-7000’
if you press the following keys:
(Speed Dial), OK, #03, (Speed Dial),
#02, and Black Start.
To temporarily change a number, you can
substitute part of the number with manual
dialing using the dial pad. For example, to
change the number to 555-7001 you could
press the following keys:
(Speed Dial), OK, #03, 7, 0, 0, 1 (on the
dial pad), and Black Start.
You can also add a pause by pressing the
Redial/Pause key.
