How do I set up a group for broadcasting faxes?

Please follow the instructions below:

 

 

Groups allow you to send the same fax message to multiple numbers (a process called broadcasting). You can store the Groups on your One-Touch keys or Speed Dial locations, and then broadcast by pressing only one One-Touch key or Search/Speed Dial, #, the three-digit Speed-Dial location, and Start.

 

 

 

You will need to store each fax number you wish to include in your Group as either a One-Touch or Speed Dial number, you can combine these numbers into a group, you can have up to eight Groups, or you can assign up to 219 numbers to one large Group.  Each Group uses one One-Touch key or Speed Dial location.  To set up a Group, please follow these steps:

 
  1. Press Menu/Set, 2 (Fax), 3 (Setup Groups).
  2. Press the One-Touch key on which you wish to store the Group and go to STEP3 or press Search/Speed Dial followed by the three-digit Speed Dial location where you wish to store the Group and the Menu/Set key.
  3. The LCD will read "SETUP GROUP: G0 ENTER & SET"
  4. Use the dial pad to assign a number to the Group (1 to 8) and then press Menu/Set to confirm your choice (for example, press 1 to designate Group 1).

  5. To include One-Touch and Speed Dial numbers in the group, enter them as if you were dialing. Enter the numbers you wish to place in this group one after the other.

     

    • To enter a One-Touch location simply press the One-Touch key that the number is stored on.  For example, if you enter One-Touch key 2, the LCD will read *03
    • To enter a Speed Dial locaton, press Search/Speed Dial, then the three-digit location where the number is stored.  For example, if you enter Speed Dial location 09, the LCD will read #009.
  6. When you have entered every number you wish to store in the Group, press the Menu/Set key to accept the the numbers you have entered. The LCD will read "NAME: ENTER & SET".

  7. Use the dial pad to enter a name for the Group and then press Menu/Set to confirm your choice.

  8. Press Stop/Exit to to exit the menu

     

    You can print a list of all the One-Touch and Speed Dial numbers you have stored on your machine.  The Quick Dial list provides the names and numbers stored in One-Touch and Speed Dial memory in numerical order.  On this list, Group numbers will be marked in the "GROUP" column.

     

  9. To print the Quick Dial list, simply press Reports, 3 (Quick-Dial).
