AUTO DIAL NUMBERS AND DIALING OPTIONS
7 - 5
Broadcasting
Broadcasting is automatically sending the same fax message to multiple
fax numbers. Using the
Broadcast
key, you can include Groups, One Touch
locations, Speed Dial locations and up to 50 manually dialed numbers.
If you did not use up any locations for Groups, access codes or credit card
numbers, you can “broadcast” faxes automatically to up to 166 locations.
However, available memory will vary with all 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 set up
transmissions using dual access and the timer.
Although the easiest way to broadcast is to press Group keys, you can
include One Touch, Speed Dial, and manually dialed numbers in the same
broadcast. You must press
Broadcast
between each of these locations. Use the
Telephone Index to help you choose the numbers easily. (See Setting Up
Groups for Broadcasting, page 7-3.) After the broadcast is completed, a
Broadcast Report will be printed automatically to let you know the results.
■To stop the broadcasting in progress, press
Stop
. The LCD display asks if
you want to cancel all locations or only the location that is being sent.
■Enter the long dialing sequence numbers as you normally would, but keep
in mind that each key counts as one location, so the number of locations
you can call becomes limited.
■If the line is busy while broadcasting, the MFC will redial the number
automatically.
■If the memory is full, press
Stop
to abort the job or press
Start
to send the
portion that is in the memory (if more than one page has been scanned.)
