You can also send E-mail from your PC and have it relayed to a conventional FAX machine. The method of
entering the phone number of the conventional FAX machine that will receive the relayed E-mail will vary
depending on the mail application you are using. The following are some examples of different mail
applications:
Some E-mail applications do not support sending to multiple phone numbers. If your E-mail application
cannot support multiple phone numbers you will only be able to relay to one Fax machine at a time.
Enter the address of the relay machine and phone number of the FAX in the “TO” box using the same method
used when sending from a machine.

Important information on Internet Fax

Internet Fax Communication on a LAN system is basically the same as communication via E-mail; however,
it is different from Fax communication using standard phone lines. The following is important information for
using Internet Fax:

„

Factors such as the receiver’s location, structure of the LAN system, and how busy the circuit (such as the
internet) is, may cause the system to take a long time to send back an error mail. (normally 20 sec. to 30
sec.).

„

In the case of transmission through the Internet, due to its low level of security, we recommend that you
use standard phone lines to send confidential documents.

„

If the receiver’s mail system is not compatible with the MIME format, you cannot transmit a document to
the receiver. Depending on receiver’s server, there may be some cases in which the error mail will not be
sent back.

„

If the size of a document’s image data is huge, there is a possibility of unsuccessful transmission.

„

You cannot change the font and character size of Internet mail that you receive.
