Other Transmission Features

Transfer Request

Transfer Request allows fax machines that have this function to automati- cally distribute incoming messages to multiple fax destinations. This func- tion helps you save costs when you send the same message to more than one place in a distant area, and saves time since many messages can be sent in a single operation.

The diagram below may make the concept clearer.

The following terminologies are used in this section:

Requesting Party

The machine where the message originates.

Transfer Station

The machine that forwards the in- coming message to another desti- nation.

End Receiver

The final destination of the mes- sage or the machine to which the Transfer Station sends to.

Preparation

Before you can use this function, you must program the Polling ID and your own fax number. See p.170 “Programming a Polling ID”, p.169 “Transfer Report”.

Limitation

The Transfer Stations you specify must be machines of the same manufacturer and have the Trans- fer Station function.

You cannot use Transfer Request without programming the fax number of the Requesting Party in a Quick Dial or Speed Dial.

Note

Polling ID's of the Requesting Par- ty (this machine) and Transfer Sta- tions must be identical.

You can specify up to 500 Transfer Stations in a Transfer Request.

You can have up to 30 End Receiv- ers per Transfer Station. If you specify a Transfer Station Group, the Group counts as a single re- ceiver.

You can program one of the Quick Operation keys with operations for this function. Using the key allows you to omit steps C and D.

A Place the original, and then select any scan settings you require.
