Using the Relay Feature
What is the Relay Feature?
From your PC or machine, you can send documents to the End Receiving Station(s) via an Internet
Relay Station.
After the relay station completes its transmission to the End Receiving Station, your PC or machine
receives a COMM. Journal from the relay station. This COMM. Journal confirms whether the Internet or
Intranet Relayed transmission was successful.
Example 1: Internet Relay Network
Initial Sending Station(s)
Send Email to a relay station (Internet Fax supporting the Relay feature) using the Internet Fax
feature to request a Relayed transmission.
zThe LAN Relayed transmissions request can be made easier by having the relay station pre-
programmed in the Address Book.
zTIFF image files can be attached to Email when it is transmitted from a computer.
zFor more details on the Relayed Transmission Report (Communication Journal) and the Fax Relay log,
refer to Result of Relayed Transmission (see page 160).
