CHAPTER 4 INTERNET FAX

Using Scan to E-mail

When a PC receives an Internet Fax document, the document is attached to a mail message that informs the PC that it is receiving a document from an Internet Fax. This is notified in the Subject field of the received mail message.

If the PC to which you wish to send a document is not running Windows® 95/ 98/98SE/Me or Windows® NT®4.0/2000/XP operating system, please inform the PC’s owner that software must be downloaded for documents in the TIFF-F format to be viewed.

You can download a TIFF-F viewer from the Brother Web site

(http://solutions.brother.com). You can also use “ Microsoft® Imaging” that

is supplied with Windows® 95/98/Me or Windows® NT®4.0/2000/XP but some older versions of Windows® 95 do not support viewing TIFF-F documents.

Before attempting to Scan to Email, it is necessary to set the network and the mail server of the Brother FAX/MFC.

-Set the appropriate IP address

-Have a mail address

-Have a mail server address

-Have a mail box (mail ID) and a password

Please confirm if you set these correctly. If you do not know how to set, please ask to the administrator.
