Broadcasting is automatically sending the same fax message to multiple fax numbers. You can include Groups, One-Touch locations, Speed Dial locations, and up to 50 manually dialed numbers in a single broadcast. Please note that this feature is not available for sending faxes in color. To broadcast a fax, please follow these instructions:

1. Press the Fax key.
    

2. Place the document you will be faxing face up in the Automatic Document Feeder.
    

3. Enter the fax numbers to which you want to broadcast. This step will vary depending on whether or not you already have the numbers in question stored on the machine as either Speed Dial or One-Touch locations, or if you are manually dialing the fax numbers: 
   
    

   1. If you are entering a Speed Dial number (or if you have stored a Group on a Speed Dial location that you want to include it in the broadcast), press the SEARCH/SPEED DIAL key while holding the SHIFT key and then press the three digits on the dial pad corresponding to the Speed Dial location where the number is stored. Press the OK key to prepare the machine to accept another number, or go to STEP 4.
       
   2. If you are entering a One-Touch number (or if you have stored a Group on a One-Touch location and wish to include it in the broadcast), then simply press the One-Touch key where you have stored the number. Press the OK key to prepare the machine to accept another number, or go to STEP 4.
       
   3. If you are manually dialing the number, then enter the number using the dial pad. Be sure to include 1 plus the area code and/or a pause if needed. Press the OK key to prepare the machine to accept another number, or go to STEP 4.
       

4. After you have entered all the fax numbers you want to transmit to, press the Start key. Your Brother machine will scan the document into memory and begin sending the information to each fax number you entered.

After your fax machine has finished dialing all the fax numbers you entered, it will automatically print a Broadcast Report. This report will list each number that was dialed, the date and duration of the transmission, the number of pages sent, and whether or not the transmission was successful.

 

To stop a Broadcast in progress:

1. Press Menu, Fax, Remaining Jobs. The LCD will display the Broadcast job number followed by the fax number being dialed (for example: #001 0123456789) and the broadcast job number (for example Broadcast#001).
    
2. Press the UP OR DOWN ARROW key to choose the job number you want to cancel.
    
3. Press the OK key. The LCD will read "1. Clear  2. Exit".
    
4. Press 1 to select "Clear".
   
   If you chose to only cancel the fax currently being sent in STEP 2, the machine will ask you if you want to cancel the broadcast. Press 1 to clear the whole broadcast or 2 to exit.
    
5. Press the Stop/Exit key to exit the menu.
