Chapter 5 Internet Fax
Direct Internet Fax Transmission (Using Direct SMTP)
Email is normally distributed by an SMTP mail server using Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP).
In common cases, only Internet Email and Web service are permitted into the corporate intranet, and
corporate network administrators are extremely unwilling to open the firewall for other incoming
services, since each opened path represents additional potential security threats.
The Direct Internet Fax feature enables documents to be directly exchanged between Internet Fax
stations without the intervention of an SMTP mail server. This will reduce workload of SMTP mail
server.
Use of this feature requires that IP Addresses always have to be kept unique. Certain information, such
as the domain name of this machine, also needs to be properly pre-programmed in the DNS server.
To use the Direct Internet Fax feature, set the Function Parameter “172 Direct IFax XMT” (Fax/Email
Settings > Fax Parameters) to “Valid”.
zFor more details on the network configuration, contact your network administrator.
