full or half duplex mode by auto negotiation.

If you set this value incorrectly, you may not be able to communicate with your print server.
MAC Address 4
The MAC address is a unique number assigned for the machine's network interface. You can check your

E-mail / IFAX (Available when IFAX is downloaded) (MFC-J5910DW only) 4
This menu has five selections: Email Address, Setup Server, Setup Mail RX, SetupMailTX and
Setup Relay. As this section requires you to enter a lot of text characters, you may find that it is more
convenient to use Web Based Management and your favorite web browser to configure these settings (see
Web Based Management (MFC-J5910DW only) uu page 53). These settings must be configured for the
IFAX feature to work. (For more details about Internet fax, see Internet fax (MFC-J5910DW only)
uu page 61.)
You can also access the character you want by repeatedly pressing the appropriate number key using the
machine’s control panel. (For entering text, see the Quick Setup Guide.)
