Relay Faxing - Konica Minolta 9880 User Manual

Relay Faxing

What is an example of Relay Faxing? Imagine that you need to
send a fax to a number of locations in another area code. With
Relay Faxing, you (the relay initiating station) send one fax
(transmission) long distance to another machine (the relay key
station [hub]). The relay key station (hub) then sends the fax
to all of the other machines/locations in the area code, at local
rates.
Relay faxing allows one machine to send a document to
another machine, which then forwards the document to a
number of other locations. Two different machines are
involved in transmitting a relay fax: the relay initiating
station and the relay key station (hub).
The KONICA FAX 9880 machine can function as an initiating
station.
The KONICA FAX 9980 machine can function as an initiating
station and a relay key station (hub).
The relay key station (hub) can send a confirmation report to
the relay initiating station when the relay fax session is
complete. This confirmation report is called the Relay
Broadcast Report.
!
The relay initiating station and the relay key station
(hub) must coordinate efforts before a relay fax can be
sent.
!
Relay Faxing is different from group faxing. In Group
Faxing, a fax is sent to a preprogrammed group of
locations directly from the fax machine.
!
At this writing, the KONCA FAX 9930
and KONICA FAX 9980 are the only KONICA
FAX machines that can function as relay key stations
(hubs).
!
If you cannot access Relay Fax features, contact your
service dealer. A Service Function setting (Technical
Function 36) may require adjustment.
!
All machines involved in a Relay Fax should be set to
Auto Receive mode. See "Setting Basic Features,
Setting the Answering Mode."
