Notes on Using Internet Fax
The following are notes about using Internet Fax:
• When using the Internet Fax function, originals are sent at A4 size. Originals
larger than A4 are reduced to A4 size. If the receiver is in compliance with the
T.37 full mode, originals are sent at the size specified in the Address Book.
• When using Internet Fax transmission, documents are sent at “Detail” resolu-
tion, even if you specify “Super Fine”. To send a document at “Super Fine”,
configure the Full Mode when registering the destinations in the Address
Book.
• If a transmission is not successful, this machine usually receives an e-mail er-
ror notification. However, e-mail error notifications may not be transmitted
for various reasons. It is recommended that you confirm receipt of important
document by calling the other party.
• The level of security for Internet communications is low. It is recommended
that you use the telephone network for confidential communications.
• Voice communication is not supported over a LAN.
• Internet Fax delivery might be delayed due to network congestion. Use Inter-
net Fax transmission that bypasses the SMTP server, a public telephone line
fax, or IP-Fax whenever communication time is a concern.
• If a power outage lasts about an hour, or the machine is disconnected from
the power outlet for about an hour, documents stored in the fax machine's
memory are deleted. If any document is deleted, the Power Failure Report is
automatically printed out when the main power switch is turned on. Use this
report to check which documents were deleted. Simply turning off the power
by pressing the operation switch does not delete stored documents. See
“Troubleshooting When Using the Facsimile Function”, Troubleshooting.
• You may not be able to send large files as e-mail, depending on e-mail envi-
ronment conditions.
•
When available memory is low, you may not be able to send Internet Fax documents.
• Because the machine sends documents as e-mail messages with an attached
TIFF-F image, viewer applications are required in order to view documents
when they are received on a computer.
• With a large volume of document, it may take some time before transmission
starts. This is due to the time the machine requires to convert the data in memory.
