Sending Internet Fax to regular fax machines via a relay station
By specifying e-mail addresses in a specific format, you can send a document to regular fax
machines (that do not support the Internet Fax service) via a network.
This feature enables the machine to first send a document to an Internet Fax-compatible
machine (fax gateway) by e-mail via the Internet. The e-mail document is then converted
to a fax document on the Internet Fax-compatible machine, and is forwarded to its
destinations. If you locate the fax gateway and regular fax machines within an area where
the same local rate applies, the fax transmission costs can be reduced.
Important •This feature is available only when the fax gateway can receive e-mail via SMTP.
Note • The e-mail received by the fax gateway is deleted even if the fax was not correctly sent.
• The setting specified in [Starting Rate] on the [Fax/Internet Fax Options] screen is used as the
communication mode from the fax gateway to the destination fax machine.
• You can restrict fax forwarding in [Fax Transfer from Address Book] and [Fax Transfer Maximum
Data Size] in the System Administration mode.
