Using a Relay Station to Send Your Documents (F-Code Based Relay Broadcast Communication)

F-Code Based Relay Broadcast Communication involves the transmission of documents to multiple, long distance destinations by transmitting the documents through a relay station, generally located between the initial transmitting station and the final destinations.

This function can help you to reduce telephone costs if, for example, the documents are transmitted from the initial transmitting station to the relay station through an international connection and are then transmitted from the relay station to the multiple final destinations through a local (domestic) connection.

*The fax machine acting as the relay station must have an F-Code Relay Box registered in advance. (Refer to “Registering New F-Code Relay Boxes”.)

The content of such a box can be verified by printing out an F-Code Relay Box List. (Refer to “Printing Out an F-Code Relay Box List” on page 5-27.)

*Refer to “Sending Documents as an F-Code Based Relay Broadcast Transmission” on page 5-25for the procedure on acting as the initial transmitting station and sending documents through a relay station.

Registering New F-Code Relay Boxes

Perform the following procedure to register a new F-Code Relay Box.

*You can register up to 15 F-Code Relay Boxes in this fax machine.

<Caution>

When registering the subaddress for an F-Code Relay Box, you must use a different number than all of the box numbers used for the Encryption Boxes and all of subaddresses that have already been registered for F-Code Confidential Boxes.

*If, for any reason, you lose reference to the F-Code password that you register here, you will not be able to delete that box. Therefore, you should exercise DUE CAUTION in the management of the F-Code password.

*If you want to cancel the procedure part way through, press the Reset key. The touch panel will return to the initial mode settings.
