Receiving an Internet Fax to a PC
When a PC receives an Internet Fax document, the document is attached to a mail message that informs the
PC that it has received a document from an Internet Fax. This is notified in the Subject field of the received
mail message.
If the PC to which you wish to send a document is not running Windows ® 98/98SE/Me/2000/XP or Windows
NT ® 4.0 operating system, please inform the PC's owner that they must install some software that can view
TIFF-F files.
You can use “Microsoft ® Imaging” that is supplied with Windows ® 98/Me/2000/XP and Windows NT ® 4.0.
Forwarding Received E-mail and Fax Messages
You can forward received E-mail or standard fax messages to another E-mail address or fax machine.
Received messages can be forwarded via E-mail to a PC or Internet Fax. They can also be forwarded via
standard phone lines to another machine.
The setting can be enabled using the Web browsers or through the machine front panel. The steps for
configuring Fax Forward can be found in the User’s Guide supplied with your machine.
Please see the User’s Guide included with the machine to check that this feature is supported.
Relay Broadcasting
This function allows the Brother machine to receive a document over the Internet, and then relay it to other
fax machines through conventional telephone lines.
If you wish to use your machine as a relay broadcast device, you must specify the domain name that you trust
at the machine, in other words, the portion of the domain after the ‘@’ sign.
A trusted domain refers to the E-mail address. For example, if the other party’s address is [email protected],
then we identify the domain as brother.com. If the E-mail address is [email protected], then we identify the
domain as brother.co.uk.
Use care in selecting a trusted domain since any user on a trusted domain will be able to send a Relay
Broadcast. You can register up to 10 domain names.
Relay Broadcast can support the relay of a document up to a maximum of 48 fax machines through
conventional telephone lines.
