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 subscribers on the list.
