Receiving Confidential Faxes
If you need to receive a fax that should not be seen by anyone else, have
the person send the message as a confidential fax from another Oki Data
Fax-compatible unit, or from a fax machine of a different maker that is
equipped with the sub-address transmission function.
In order to do this, you must first set up a confidential mailbox, as ex-
plained below. Then, give your mailbox number to the person sending
the message.
An incoming confidential fax is stored in memory until you enter your
password.
Creating a Confidential Mailbox (Personal Box)
The number of confidential mailboxes you can set up depends on your
OKIFAX model.
Your MFP can have up to 8 confidential mailboxes (Personal Boxes).
