Internet Fax (iFAX)
Overview
When the iFAX feature is enabled, the printer can transmit scanned data as an e-mail attachment
using either corporate networks or the Internet, unlike conventional fax machines which utilize public
phone lines. Also, the printer can receive e-mails transmitted from other machines which support the
iFAX service. When the printer receives e-mail from an iFAX-compatible machine, the received
document is printed automatically.
Note: It is assumed that you purchased the Internet Fax option to enable iFAX with your printer. If you
did not, contact your Xerox Representative to purchase this option.
Note: The FAX or Internet Fax (iFAX) features and the Server Fax feature are mutually exclusive. If
Server Fax is enabled, even if the printer is equipped with an internal fax board, scanning to the internal
FAX will be disabled. While the Server Fax feature is enabled, the iFAX service will also be disabled. Also
note that Folder to FAX (a Job Flow Sheet destination) and Direct Fax (LAN Fax) are not supported
when Server Fax is enabled. The default when both options have been installed is to enable the internal
fax board and Internet Fax. Server Fax will be disabled. You can use CentreWare Internet Services to
select which Fax Service to enable. For more information see Server Fax on page 154.
