Sending E-mails to a Facsimile Machine

By specifying the E-mail addresses in a specified format, the machine on the
network can send faxes to facsimile machines that do not support the iFax fea-
ture, through an iFax compatible machine (Fax Gateway).

This feature sends faxes as E-mails to iFax-installed machines (called fax gate-
way) that are connected to the network via the Internet. When faxes are
received, the iFax-installed machine converts them into faxes and forwards
them to the specified facsimile.This feature is useful to save on transmission
cost if the sender and recipient of the fax transmission are in the local call area.

This feature is available only when the method of receiving E-mail of the machine equipped with
iFax (fax gateway) is set to SMTP.

See “13.4.2 Sending Faxes to Recipients as Relay Centers” (P. 284) for details.
