Broadcasting (Not Available for Colour Fax)
Broadcasting is automatically sending the same fax message to multiple fax numbers. Using the
Menu/Set key, you can include up to 40 Speed Dial locations, and up to 50 manually dialled
numbers (maximum of 90 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 numbers of locations
used for broadcasting. If you broadcast to more than the maximum locations available, you will not
be able to setup transmissions using dual access and the timer.
The easiest way to broadcast is to first combine frequently used Speed Dial numbers as a Group,
which uses up a Speed Dial. (Remember, you can have up to six Groups, and Quick-Dial numbers
can be included in more than one Group). Then by pressing Menu/Set between each location, you
can include Speed Dial, Groups, and manual dialling (using the dial pad) in the same broadcast. Use
the Search/Speed Dial 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.

Press Mono Fax Start.
The machine will read the documents into memory and then start sending faxes to all the numbers
you entered.
■ Enter the long dialling sequence numbers as you normally would, but keep in
mind that each Speed Dial counts as one location, so the number of locations
you can call becomes limited.
■ If the line is busy or a connection could not be made for some other reasons
while broadcasting, the machine will redial the number automatically.
■ If the memory is full, press Stop/Exit to abort the job or press Mono Fax Start
to send the portion that is in the memory (if more than one page has been
scanned).
