Setup Flow for Internet Fax
The Internet Fax feature allows users to send scanned images to other Internet Fax devices over the
Internet. The Internet Fax is similar to Scan to E-mail, but it converts the scanned image to a TIFF-S format.
This equipment sends the internet faxes via a SMTP server and receives them from a POP3 server.
To configure the Internet Fax environment, configure the SMTP server to send and the POP3 server to
receive. Remember that a DNS server is required for the SMTP and POP3 servers to transmit the
document over the Internet. To enable receiving an Internet Fax, configure the POP3 account for this
equipment in the POP3 server. This equipment can access the POP3 server to check if an Internet Fax
message has been received — same as the E-mail client software.
