2. Scan to E-mail
The Scan to E-mail feature lets you
scan a document and directly send the
image to an e-mail recipient.
This saves you the trouble of scanning
the document into a computer and
sending the scanned file using an e-
mail program.
The scanned document is sent as an
attachment to an e-mail message.
The attached file can be in TIFF or
PDF format.

Requirements

To use Scan to E-mail, you must
Have an Internet connection.
Have a broadband router or LAN
switch/hub through which you can
connect the machine to the Internet
(the router is usually connected to a
cable modem or DSL modem).
A typical setup is shown below.
The machine is connected using an
Ethernet cable (not included). Please
purchase a straight-through (regular)
cable that supports 10Base-T.
Connect one end of the cable to the
LAN port on the machine.
Connect the other end to a LAN port on
your router, switch, or hub.
If you are uncertain which port to
connect the cable to, see the manual
for the router, switch or hub.
The connections can be made with all
devices powered on.
For other questions about how the
machine should be connected,
consult your Internet service provider.
