F Code Communication

F Code transmission is a function to communicate, using sub addresses or passwords in accordance with the ITU-T standard. By creating F code boxes/sub addresses/passwords, you can execute secure communication, bulletin box communication and polling communication.

NOTE

Up to 20 F code boxes can be registered.

Up to 30 documents can be stored in one box.

Sub Address, Password and ID Code

A sub address is a number to distinguish various F code boxes that are set in the memory.

A password is a key to prevent wrongful sending and receiving.

An ID code is a key to access a secure box.

By using a sub address and password, the following functions can be used:

F Code Secure Communication

When an F code secure box is set in the recipient machine, by specifying the sub address and password (if necessary) of its box, secure communication can be executed.

On the receiving side of the secure communication, unless the specified ID code is entered, a received document cannot be printed, therefore, this function is useful when sending a document that needs a security protection. Refer to

-“Transmission using a Sub Address (F Code Transmission)” on page 89.

-“Printing Stored Documents” on page 91.

F Code Bulletin Box Communication

When the F code bulletin box is set in the recipient machine, by specifying the sub address of its notice board, a document can be sent to the bulletin box or a document stored in the bulletin box can be taken out (polling). (A password can be specified, if necessary.) Refer to:

-“Transmission using a Sub Address (F Code Transmission)” on page 89.

-“Receiving using a Sub Address (F-Code Polling)” on page 90.

-“Storing Documents to the Notice Board” on page 90.
