Pre Installation Information
Before setting up your Panasonic machine on your network, please read this entire section to be familiar
with its functions.
Your machine is able to perform the following when connected to a 10Base-T/100Base-TX Ethernet LAN
(local area network):
• Send paper-based information as an Internet Email.
• Send Internet fax message (Direct IFAX XMT).
• Receive and print an Internet Email automatically.
• Forward received G3 fax message or Email automatically to the preprogrammed Email address or regular
G3 fax machine (see "Fax Forward" on page 177).
• Route received G3 fax message automatically to the sender-specified Email address or G3 fax machine
using ITU-T SUB-Address (see "Inbound Routing" on pages 156 to 159).
• Route received G3 fax messages automatically to the preprogrammed Email address or G3 fax machine
using the sender’s fax ID code (see "Inbound Routing" on pages 156 to 159).
• Relay an Internet Email to a G3 fax machine via regular fax transmission (see "Relayed Transmission" on
pages 181 to 193).
• Network scanning and printing.
To utilize the above functions, your machine needs to be set up properly on your network. Please contact
your network administrator for actual network setup.
Copy the Pre-installation Information form found at the end of this section on page 19, record the MAC
Address on the form and ask your network administrator to complete the remaining information on the form.
The MAC Address of your machine can be found in the Fax Parameter List printout (press
).
Your machine can be set up as either SMTP mail server or POP3 client. Dependent on the type of setup,
different functions are available as follows.
NOTE
1. To function as SMTP mail server, your machine's email address must include its unique Host
name within your company domain. This unique Host name must be registered within your
network’s DNS (Domain Name System) server. Example: Internet_Fax@fax01.panasonic.com
2. Automatically refers to immediate SMTP transfer or immediate POP3 retrieval. Manually
refers to manual retrieval of mail when configured as POP3 client.
3. If you are using DHCP to acquire the network parameters, contact your Network Administrator
to reserve the obtained IP Address printed on the Fax Parameter List.
4. Your machine will receive, print, forward or relay emails in text message format and TIFF-F
image file attachment only.
