Broadcasting

Broadcasting is automatically sending the same fax message to multiple fax numbers. Using the Menu/Set key, you can include up to 8 One Touch locations (FAX-2850), up to 100 Speed Dial locations, and up to 50 manually dialled numbers (maximum of 158 (FAX-2850) or 150 (MFC- 4800) 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 (FAX-2850) and Speed Dial numbers as a Group, which uses up a One Touch key (FAX-2850) or 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 One Touch (FAX- 2850), 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.

The machine will read the documents into memory and then start sending faxes to all the numbers you entered.

■To stop the broadcasting in progress, press Stop/Exit. The display asks if you

want to cancel all locations or just the location that is being sent to.

■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 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 Fax Start to send the portion that is in the memory (if more than one page has been scanned).
