E-MAIL PRINT

An e-mail account can be configured in the machine to have the machine periodically check your mail server and automatically print received e-mail attachments without using the printer driver.

Configuring settings

To use E-mail Print, you must first configure an e-mail account in the machine. To configure an account, click [Application Settings] and then [E-mail Print Settings] in the Web page menu. (Administrator rights are required.)

Using E-mail Print

To print a file using E-mail Print, use your e-mail program on your computer to send the file as an attachment to the machine's e-mail address.

Control commands can be entered in the message of the e-mail to specify the number of prints and print format. Commands are entered in the format "command name = value".

Enter the commands in Plain Text format. If entered in Rich Text format (HTML), the commands will have no effect.

To receive a list of the control commands, enter the command "Config" in the e-mail message.

If nothing is entered in the body text (message) of the e-mail, printing will take place according to the "Printer Default Settings" in the system settings. For information on the settings, see "PRINTER DEFAULT SETTINGS" (page 74). If you printed a file (PCL or PS) that includes print settings, the settings will be applied.

To print PDF and PS files, the PS3 expansion kit must be installed.

Only enter a "File type" when you are specifying a page-description language. Normally there is no need to enter a file type.
