How to receive an Internet fax

There are 2 ways you can receive E-mail messages:
POP3 receiving at regular intervals
POP3 receiving (manually initiated)
Using POP3 receiving the machine must poll the E-mail server to receive the data. This polling can occur at
set intervals (for example, you can configure the machine to poll the E-mail server at 10 minute intervals) or
you can manually poll the server by pressing
,
All Settings
,
Network
,
E-mail/IFAX
, and then
Manual POP3 Receive
.
If your machine starts to receive E-mail data, the Touchscreen will reflect this activity. For example, you will
see
Receiving
on the Touchscreen followed by
XX/XX E-mail(s)
. If you press
,
All Settings
,
Network
,
E-mail/IFAX
, and then
Manual POP3 Receive
to manually poll the E-mail server for E-mail
data and there are no mail documents waiting to be printed, the machine will display
No Mail
on the
Touchscreen for two seconds.
NOTE
• If your machine is out of paper when receiving data, the received data will be held in the machine’s
memory. This data will be printed automatically after paper is re-inserted into the machine.
• If the received mail is not in a plain text format or an attached file is not in the TIFF-F format, the following
error message will be printed: “ATTACHED FILE FORMAT NOT SUPPORTED. FILE
NAME:XXXXXX.doc” If the received mail is too large, the following error message will be printed: “E-MAIL
FILE TOO LARGE.”. If Delete POP Receive Error Mail is ON (default) then the error mail is automatically
deleted from the E-mail server.
