Internet fax (MFC-J5910DW only)

Note

Some E-mail servers do not allow you to send large E-mail documents (the System Administrator will often place a limit on the maximum E-mail size). With this function enabled, the machine will display

Out of Memory when trying to send E-mail documents over 1 Mbyte in size. The document will not be sent and an error report will be printed. The document you are sending should be separated into smaller documents that will be accepted by the mail server. (For your information, a 42 page document based on the ITU-T Test Chart #1 test chart is approximately 1 Mbyte in size.)

How to receive an Internet fax

There are 2 ways you can receive E-mail messages:

POP3 receiving at regular intervals

POP3 receiving (manually initiated)

Using POP3 receiving the machine must poll the E-mail server to receive the data. This polling can occur at set intervals (for example, you can configure the machine to poll the E-mail server at 10 minute intervals) or you can manually poll the server by pressing the SCAN + Color Start/Colour Start keys.

If your machine starts to receive E-mail data, the LCD panel will reflect this activity. For example, you will see Receiving on the LCD panel followed by xx E-mail(s). If you press the SCAN +

Color Start/Colour Start keys to manually poll the E-mail server for E-mail data and there are no mail documents waiting to be printed, the machine will display No Mail on the LCD panel for two seconds.

Note

•If your machine is out of paper when receiving data, the received data will be held in the machine’s memory. This data will be printed automatically after paper is re-inserted into the machine.

•If the received mail is not in a plain text format or an attached file is not in the TIFF-F format, the following error message will be printed: “ATTACHED FILE FORMAT NOT SUPPORTED”. If the received mail is too large, the following error message will be printed: “E-MAIL FILE TOO LARGE”. If Delete POP Receive Error Mail is ON (default) then the error mail is automatically deleted from the E-mail server.
