Relay broadcast

Your fax machine (initiator) can relay a document, in other
words, transmit a document to your subscribers via a
remote fax and with a precise relay list.
To do this the initiator fax and the remote fax must both
have the relay function.
To relay you need to supply the remote fax with the
document and the relay list number. The remote fax will
then transmit this document to all subscribers on the list.
Once the relay is activated by your fax and as soon as the
document is received by the remote fax, the document is
printed before relaying to all subcribers on the list.
To activate relay from your fax machine:
1 Insert the document to relay.
2 Select 37 - FAX / BROADCAST.
3 Enter the remote fax number where you will relay to
or choose your dialling mode and press OK.
4 Enter the relay list number used by the remote fax
and press OK.

Fax answering machine

The Fax answering machine allows you to keep
confidential documents in storage and to avoid printing
them as you receive them.
The indicator light lets you know the state of your Fax
answering machine:
• Light on: the answering machine is on.
• Blinking: your fax has documents in storage or is in the
process of receiving faxes.
• Light off: memory full, the terminal cannot receive any
more documents.
You can assure document confidentiality by using the 4
digit access code. Once saved, you will require this
access code for:
• printing fax messages in memory,
• activating or deactivating the fax answering machine.
