Relay Broadcast (Transmitting Documents Through a Relay Station)

The Relay Broadcast feature transmits documents to multiple recipients via other fax
machines (relay stations). When a document is to be transmitted over a long distance
to multiple recipients, it is first transmitted to one relay station and from there to multiple
recipients. When you transmit documents over a long distance to many recipients,
using Relay Broadcast can reduce transmission costs.
Furthermore, multiple Relay Broadcast operations can be performed simultaneously.
This is called Multiple Relay Broadcast.
Note
The following three methods are available for Relay Broadcast:

Fax Signal Method

This method employs a Fuji Xerox proprietary communication procedure that is only for
use with specific machines that have the Relay Broadcast feature.
DTMF Method
G3 fax machines that support Manual Send can perform Relay Broadcast for the
machine.

This method can be used among machines that support the F Code and the Relay
Broadcast features.
