Beyond the basics
Batch transmission
Batch transmission allows you to store multiple documents in an electronic "basket"
throughout the day and then fax that entire basket to one location.
To do this, just tell the machine when and where the transmission should go. When
that date and time arrives, your machine will transmit each document in the batch
box to the remote fax machine. You can store up to 40 documents (each document
can include one page or many pages) into your machine's five electronic batch boxes.
Creating or modifying a batch box
