Internet Faxing (i-FAX) > What is i-FAX? What is i-FAX? The i-FAX function sends and receives faxes via the Internet without using a phone line. The main features of i-FAX are: • It reduces communication costs since it does not use a phone line. • Address books (on this machine or on a computer) can be used to specify destinations. • Faxes can be sent to multiple recipients simultaneously. • Memory forwarding (refer to 4-17) can be used to forward faxes received by this machine to multiple recipients as Internet faxes. • E-mail notification of transmission results • Direct SMTP is supported, which enables direct communication (without going through a mail server) with a machine that supports Internet fax and is connected via LAN. Real time transmission and reception are possible. Example of sending i-FAX E-Mail: [email protected] This machine IP address: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx LAN Direct SMTP IP address: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx Mail Server Mail Server Internet Internet Fax E-Mail: [email protected] i-FAX Transmission Flowchart The procedure for sending an i-FAX is shown below.
