This feature is used to send a document to multiple destinations in a single operation. The document to be
transmitted is scanned into memory and then successively transmitted to the selected destinations. This feature is
convenient for such purposes as distributing a report to company branches in different locations. Up to 500
(maximum of 300 on the AR-M351U/AR-M451U when a hard disk is not installed) destinations can be selected.

If you frequently use broadcasting to send documents to the same group of destinations, it is convenient to
program those destinations into a group key. A group key is a one-touch key in which multiple destinations are
programmed. The procedure for programming group keys is explained on page 6-6.
When using a group key to send a fax, the destinations programmed in the group key are counted as
broadcasting destinations. For example, if five destinations are programmed in a group key and the key is
touched for a broadcast transmission, the broadcast transmission will have five destinations.

(page 2-2).

Dial the fax number of the first destination or

key or speed dial key). (Refer to page 2-4.)

If the condition settings

screen appears, touch the

[ADDRESS BOOK] key to

display the address book

An auto-dial key is

highlighted when touched.

Repeat this step for

each of the remaining

destinations.

When the [ADDRESS

touched, only the
entered and selected
destinations are
displayed.

When you have finished
checking the
destinations, touch the
[OK]  key to return to the
screen of step 4.

If you wish to delete a
destination, touch the
displayed one-touch key. A
message will appear to confirm
the deletion. Touch [YES] and
the destination will be deleted
from the destination list. To

cancel instead of deleting, touch the [NO] key.

Continue from step 8 of "BASIC PROCEDURE
FOR SENDING FAXES" (page  2-3).

The results of a broadcast transmission can be viewed in the

following screen, which is opened by touching the [BROADCAST:

XXXX] key (where "XXXX" is the number of the job; see "NOTES"

on page 2-3) in the finished job screen and then the [DETAIL] key.

* Can only be used on the AR-M351N/AR-M451N, or when the

document filing function has been added.

(A) [FILE] tab

This only appears if the job was stored using the filing

function. If the job was stored and transmission to a

destination was not successful, the document image can

be resent without scanning the document again. To call

the destination and resend the image, switch to the

[FAILED]  or  [ALL DESTINATIONS] tab.

(B) [FAILED] tab

This shows destinations to which transmission failed due

to an error or other reason. The name of the destination,

starting time, and transmission status appear. To call the

destinations again, touch the [RETRY] key.

(C) [ALL DESTINATIONS] tab

This shows the name, starting time, and transmission

status of all of the destinations of the broadcast

transmission. All destinations can be called again by

touching the [RETRY] key in this screen.

If you enter an incorrect number
If you make a mistake while entering a number, press
the [C] key and then re-enter the correct digit(s).
If you have already completed entry of a fax number,
you can delete the number using steps 4 and 5.
If you select an incorrect auto-dial key
Simply touch the incorrect key one more time to
cancel the selection.

The [NEXT ADDRESS] key only needs to be
pressed when successively dialing fax numbers
with the numeric keys

If desired, you can use the key operator program to
set the machine so that the [NEXT ADDRESS] key
must always be pressed (refer to page 8-4).
