Internet Fax Overview

If the Fax Kit and the Internet Fax Kit are installed on the machine, you can send and receive scanned data as attachments, via an intranet or the Internet. This differs from a facsimile that transmits the data via a telephone line.

Some models do not support the Internet Fax service. Some models require optional kits to use the Internet Fax service. For details, contact the Xerox Welcome Center.
