Sending an Internet fax 11
Sending an Internet fax is the same as sending a normal fax. If you have already programmed the addresses
of the destination Internet fax machines as One Touch or Speed-Dial locations, you can send the Internet fax
by loading the document into the machine, use the Fax Resolution to set the preferred resolution and
select a Speed-Dial number and pressing Black Start or Mono Start.

As you enter an Internet fax address, the address will appear character by character on the LCD. If you
specify more than 22 characters, the LCD will scroll the name to the left character by character. You can enter
up to 60 characters.
(For US) Press Black Start to send the document.
(For UK) Press Mono Start to send the document.
After the document is scanned, it is transmitted to the recipient Internet fax machine automatically via your
SMTP server. You can cancel the send operation by pressing the Stop/Exit button during scanning. After the
transmission is finished, the machine will return to standby mode.
Some E-mail servers do not allow you to send large E-mail documents (the System Administrator will often
place a limit on the maximum E-mail size). With this function enabled, the machine will display
OutofMemory when trying to send E-mail documents over 1 Mbyte in size. The document will not be sent
and an error report will be printed. The document you are sending should be separated into smaller
documents that will be accepted by the mail server. (For your information, a 42 page document based on the
ITU-T Test Chart #1 test chart is approximately 1 Mbyte in size.)
