Broadcasting
Broadcasting is automatically sending the same fax message to multiple fax numbers. Using the Help/Broadcast key, you can include up to 24 One Touch locations, up to 100 Speed Dial locations, and up to 50 manually dialled numbers (maximum of 174 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 One Touch and Speed Dial numbers as a Group, which uses up a One Touch Key. (Remember, you can have up to six Groups and Quick Dial numbers can be included in more than one Group). Then by pressing Help/Broadcast between each location, you can include One Touch, Speed Dial, Groups, and manual dialling (using the dial pad) in the same broadcast. Use the
After the broadcast is completed, a Broadcast Report will be printed automatically to let you know the results.

■Enter the long dialling 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 become 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.
