6 INTERNET FAX
Receiving Internet Faxes
Available file formats
The equipment can print out TIFF-FX images, TIFF images scanned in black and white, and text data (email messages in the plain text format). In addition, the resolution of the TIFF-FX images must be either 8 x 3.85 or 8 x 7.7 or 8 x 15.4 (dot/ mm) while that of scanned TIFF images must be 200 x 100, 200 x 200, 200 x 400, 400 x 400, or 600 x 600 (dpi).
If any files failing to meet the above conditions are attached to a received Internet Fax, an e-mail printing error occurs and is recorded as an error code on the RECEIVE log. On TopAccess, the “Email Print” settings are available for the administrator so that error codes can be printed as a report. The administrator can also set the equipment to forward such Internet Faxes to another e-mail address. For details, refer to the TopAccess Guide.
Receiving Internet faxes
The equipment accesses the e-mail server at specified intervals to check whether any e-mail has been delivered. New e-mail is automatically received and printed out unless you check manually.
Receiving Internet Faxes automatically
The administrator can set up the equipment configuration on TopAccess to automatically receive Internet faxes from the e-mail server. If the “Scan Rate” setting is specified, the equipment accesses the e-mail server to check for any new e-mail at specified intervals. (The factory default is 5 minutes.) For more details, refer to the TopAccess Guide.
