# Broadcasting sequence

Use the broadcasting function to send the same original to multiple destinations simultaneously.

You can broadcast via multiple transmission types (fax, IP-Fax, Internet Fax, e-mail, and folder) at the same time.

To specify multiple destinations, specify the first destination, and then specify the next destination by pressing [Add].

If you dial several destinations for the same document (broadcasting), the documents are sent in the order in which they were dialed. If the fax document could not be transmitted, the machine redials that destination after the last destination specified for broadcasting. For example, if you specify four destinations, A through D, for broadcasting, and if the lines to destinations A and C are busy, the machine dials the destinations in the following order: A, B, C, D, A, and C.

To check the transmission progress, print the TX file list. See “Printing a List of Files in Memory (Print TX File List)”.

If you specify a second transmission while broadcasting to several destinations, faxes are transmitted alternately to each remaining destination in the current and second broadcast.

For example, if you specify a broadcast to destinations A and B, and then specify a broadcast to destinations C and D while transmission to destination A is in progress, the machine sends the faxes in the following order: A, C, B, and then D.

If the previous file and next file are both on standby, these are also sent in the same order.

- To avoid accidentally specifying multiple destinations, you can disable broadcasting. You cannot specify group destinations if you disable broadcasting. You can specify only one address at a time. For details about how to disable broadcasting, contact your service representative.

- The Facsimile Features menu includes a user parameter setting (switch 17, bit 2) that enables you to configure the machine to force the user to press [Add] whenever s/he specifies a destination using a destination key. This prevents users accidentally sending documents to the wrong destination. See “Parameter Settings”.
