Chapter 5: FaxFinder-IP Operation

Send Fax from Email (T.37)

When you wish to send an email as a fax, using the T.37 format in the To: field will take advantage of the

FF240-IP from your Outlook email software. To do this you will need to know a few things: your administrator should provide you with the domain name of the FF240-IP unit and you need to know the phone number of the fax recipient.

To begin, compose the message as a new email.

1.In the To: field, enter the recipients in this format: FAX=phone number of recipient fax machine@FF240-IP domain (e.g. FAX=7635551234@FF240-IP.example.com as shown below)

2.Add any graphical attachments (PDF, Text or Tiff)

3.Click the Send email button

Send Fax from Web Interface

Logging in to the FF240-IP unit via a web browser is another simple way to have a fax sent from the FF240-IP unit. This process is started by simply entering the IP address (e.g. 192.168.2.1) in the address bar of the browser and using the links to access the Send Fax screen. Depending on the browser used, you may see security warnings. Click ‘Yes’ to proceed in Internet Explorer; for Firefox, you may have to add an exception for the FF240-IP unit’s IP address.

To begin, enter your Username and Password.
