What Your I-Fax Machine Can Do
I-Fax is a feature with many capabilities.
This unit can:
• send and receive faxes via a Public Switched Telephone
Network (PSTN)
• send and receive faxes via the Internet (over a LAN)
• print via a Local Area Network (LAN) (Windows only)
• act as an email scanner (see “Backup/Archive (Email
Scanning)” on page 83
• act as a Gateway service
• act as a convenience copier
!
Important!
Internet faxes differ from traditional faxes in these ways:
Although your OKIFAX has security features, faxes sent over
the Internet are more vulnerable to interception than faxes
sent over the PSTN.
There is no way to verify that a message has been received by
the machine to which it was addressed.
