Relay broadcast

Your fax machine (initiator) can relay a document, in other words, transmit a document to your subscribers via a remote fax and with a precise relay list.

To do this the initiator fax and the remote fax must both have the relay function.

To relay you need to supply the remote fax with the document and the relay list number. The remote fax will then transmit this document to all subscribers on the list.

Once the relay is activated by your fax and as soon as the document is received by the remote fax, the document is printed before relaying to all subscribers on the list.
