Sending A Fax to a Group

What is a Group?

A group is a collection of programmed locations. Once you have programmed some One Touch keys or Auto dial numbers, you can use these programmed locations to create groups. Using groups, you can easily send the same fax to multiple locations. You can program up to 10 groups, each having up to 90 numbers.

What is an example of a group? Let’s imagine that you work with a team of several co-workers. Each co-worker is at a unique geographic location. You have programmed each co-worker’s fax number as a One-Touch key. Your group would be the collection of all of the co-workers’ fax numbers.

When would you use a group? Let’s imagine that you must send a weekly status report to all of your co-workers on the team. Using the group feature allows you to send the one report to all of the co-workers’ locations.

!Faxing to a group is different from relay broadcasting. In relay broadcasting, one fax is sent to a remote

machine. The remote machine then relays the fax to a group of fax numbers.
