Groups

Groups

If you regularly broadcast documents to the same set of destinations, you can combine these numbers into a group. Then just select the group and each number will be dialed in se- quence automatically.

There are two ways of programming Groups:

Registering groups in Quick Dial keys

If you register a group in a Quick Dial key, you can specify that group by pressing a Quick Dial key. However, if you use Quick Dial keys to register groups, you will be able to register fewer Quick Dial keys .

Note

You cannot register another function (Quick Dials) in a Quick Dial key already used for a group. Also, you cannot regis- ter groups in a Quick Dial key already used for another func- tion.

Assigning the Group Functions to the Group key

To assign the Group Function to the Group key, you must first as- sign the Group function to a User Function key. To send a fax, press the Group key, and then enter the group number (1 to 5). To select a Group using a Group key, one more step is required than when using a Quick Dial key. However, multiple Groups (a maximum of five) can be stored in a Group key, thus leaving the Quick Dial keys to be used more effectively.

Registering

You can register the following items in a Group:

Destination fax numbers

Group name (up to 20 characters)

You can enter destination numbers

using Quick Dial keys, Speed Dials, or the number keys.

Note

You can register up to 5 Groups.

The maximum number of destina- tions you can register in a Group is 140.

The combined maximum number of destinations you can register in all Groups is 149. This 149 can be composed of up to 30 Quick Dial numbers, 50 Speed Dial numbers and 69 numbers entered directly with the number keys.

The number of destinations that can be registered with the number keys depends on how the machine is used. In theory you can register up to a combined maximum of 69 destinations with the number keys for all groups.

If you register 69 destinations with the number keys, Memory Trans- mission using the number keys be- comes unavailable, and only Immediate Transmission is avail- able.

If you register a Group with the number keys when a file is waiting to be transmitted, a message is shown. You sometimes cannot reg- ister any more destinations even when the number of specified des- tination is 68 or less.
