Internet fax Overview
7
Internet faxing (IFAX) allows you to send and receive fax documents using the Internet as the transport
mechanism. Documents are transmitted in E-mail messages as attached TIFF-F files. This means that
computers are also able to receive and send documents, providing that the computer has an application that
can generate and view TIFF-F files, you can use any TIFF-F viewer application. Any documents sent via the
machine will automatically be converted into a TIFF-F format. If you wish to send and receive messages to
and from your machine, your mail application on the computer must be able to support the MIME format.

• You can send/receive IFAX documents in Letter or A4 format and in Black & White only.
 Forwarding received E-mail and fax messages
You can forward received E-mail or standard fax messages to another E-mail address or fax machine. For
more information see Forwarding received E-mail and fax messages on page 65.
 Relay broadcast
If you want to fax a document long distance (such as abroad), the "relay broadcast" function allows you to
save the communication fee. This function allows the Brother machine to receive the document over the
Internet, and then relay it to other fax machines through conventional telephone lines. For more
information see Relay broadcasting on page 65.
