How to send an Internet fax 7
Sending an Internet fax is the same as sending a normal fax (For more information, see Sending a fax in the
Basic User’s Guide). If you have already programmed the addresses of the destination Internet fax machines
as One Touch or Speed-Dial locations, you can send the Internet fax by loading the document into the
machine. If you want to change the resolution, use the Fax Resolution key to set the preferred resolution,
choose a Speed Dial or One Touch number, and press Start (S.Fine is not supported for Internet fax).
Note
• If you wish to manually enter the Internet fax address, load the document into the machine and press Shift
and 1 simultaneously to change into the “alphabet” dialing mode. Enter the address and then press Start.
For more information to manually enter the Internet fax address, see the Quick Setup Guide.
• You can register the E-mail address information from Web Based Management or Remote Setup.
After the document is scanned, it is transmitted to the recipient Internet fax machine automatically via your
SMTP server. You can cancel the send operation by pressing the Stop/Exit key during scanning. After the
transmission is finished, the machine will return to standby mode.
