Create a broadcasting group if you want to send a single fax message to many fax numbers at the same time. You can store broadcasting groups in your machine's Address Book, Shortcut, or Speed Dial, depending on your model.

First, you must store each fax number in the Address Book. Then you can include them as numbers in the Group. Each Group uses up an Address Book (a Shortcut, or a Speed Dial in some models) number.
