F Code Communication
F Code transmission is a function to communicate, using sub addresses or passwords in
accordance with the ITU-T standard. By creating F code boxes/sub addresses/passwords,
you can execute secure communication, bulletin box communication and polling
communication.
Sub Address, Password and ID Code
•
A sub address is a number to distinguish various F code boxes that are set in the
memory.
• A password is a key to prevent wrongful sending and receiving.
• An ID code is a key to access a secure box.
By using a sub address and password, the following functions can be used:
•
F Code Secure Communication
When an F code secure box is set in the recipient machine, by specifying the sub
address and password (if necessary) of its box, secure communication can be
executed.
On the receiving side of the secure communication, unless the specified ID code is
entered, a received document cannot be printed, therefore, this function is useful
when sending a document that needs a security protection. Refer to
- “Transmission using a Sub Address (F Code Transmission)” on page 87.
- “Printing Stored Documents” on page 89.
• F Code Bulletin Box Communication
When the F code bulletin box is set in the recipient machine, by specifying the sub
address of its notice board, a document can be sent to the bulletin box or a document
stored in the bulletin box can be taken out (polling). (A password can be specified, if
necessary.) Refer to:
- “Transmission using a Sub Address (F Code Transmission)” on page 87.
- “Receiving using a Sub Address (F Code Polling)” on page 88.
- “Storing Documents to the Notice Board” on page 88.
