TROUBLESHOOTING AND MAINTENANCE
IF YOUR E-MAIL IS RETURNED
If a Scan to E-mail is not successfully transmitted, an e-mail informing you of th is fact is sent to the sender selected
at the time of transmission. If this happens, read the e-mail and determine the cause of the error, and then repeat
the transmission.
IMPORTANT POINTS WHEN USING SCAN TO E-MAIL
Be very careful not to send image data files that are too large.
Your mail server's system administrator may have placed a limit on th e amount of data that can be sent in one e-mail
transmission. If this limit is exceeded, the e-mail will not be delivered to the recipient. Even if there is no limit and
your e-mail is successfully delivered, a large data file may take a long time to be received and pl ace a heavy burden
on the recipient's network, depending on the recipient's network (Internet) con nection environment.
If large image data files are repeatedly sent, the resulting burden on the network may slow do wn the speed of other,
unrelated data transmissions and in some cases, may even cause the m ail server or network to go down.
The images on the following page will produce the following file sizes whe n scanned as A4 or 8-1/2" x 11" size
originals:
* If multiple im ages are scanned, the file size will be approximately (Size of each image as indicated above) x
(Number of images scanned).
Although the actual limitation depends on your network environment, a gene ral guideline for the maximum file size
for Scan to E-mail is 2000 KB. In cases where you need to send mul tiple documents, try such measures as lowering
the resolution mode.
