Batch transmission
Batch transmission allows you to store multiple documents in an electronic “basket”
throughout the day and then fax that entire basket to one location.
To do this, just tell the machine when and where the transmission should go. When that
date and time arrives, your machine will transmit each document in the batch box to the
remote fax machine. You can store up to 40 documents (each document can include one
or more pages) into your machine’s five electronic batch boxes.
Adding or editing a batch box
