- OFFRAMP GATEWAY SETUP

What is a “Offramp Gateway”?

This machine can be used as a Hub Station to forward E-mails from your client computer or Internet Fax machine to the any facsimile through the public switched
telephone network.
For example, the document can be sent to the machine in a country or city through the Internet, then the document is sent from this machine to the any facsimiles through
the local public telephone line.

What is “SMTP”?

This machine uses Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) to enable the Offramp Gateway transmission. “SMTP” is a server protocol for sending E-mail messages
between servers. Usually the E-mail systems that transfer E-mails over the Internet use the SMTP to send messages from one server to another. Therefore, when
this machine uses the SMTP to transfer E-mails, this machine works as a mail server.

How this machine can receive E-mail through SMTP?

For the DP120F/DP125F to receive transmissions in SMTP mode from the mail server, the specific domain (that relates to the DP120F/DP125F) E-mail address must
be set up on the Host mail server. To set this on the mail server, the hostname of this machine must be designated. If the hostname of this machine is designated
as “host1.toshiba.com”, it is set to transfer the E-mail to this machine when an E-mail to “xxx@host1.toshiba.com” is delivered to the Internet.

3. The mail server transfer the E-mail
to the machine in the SMTP trans-
mission.
NOTE: The mail server is configured to
transfer the E-mail whose for-
warding address contains
“host1.toshiba.com”.
1. The E-mail is sent to
“xxxx@host1.toshiba.com”
from the Internet Fax ma-
chine or client computer.
2. The mail server (toshiba.com) retrieves the
E-mail.
NOTE: The mail server is configured to re-
trieve the E-mail whose forwarding ad-
dress contains “host1.toshiba.com”.
4. The E-mail is converted to a fac-
simile and send to the G3 FAX
through the public switched tele-
phone network.

a document using Offramp Gateway”.
5. If the username section of the E-mail
address designates the fax number
and the subaddress, the facsimile is
sent to the subaddress destination.
