How to receive an Internet fax

There are 2 ways you can receive E-mail messages:

POP3 receiving at regular intervals

POP3 receiving (manually initiated)

Using POP3 receiving the machine must poll the E-mail server to receive the data. This polling can occur at
set intervals (for example, you can configure the machine to poll the E-mail server at 10 minute intervals) or

you can manually poll the server by pressing

,

All Settings

,

Network

,

E-mail/IFAX

, and then

Manual POP3 Receive

.

If your machine starts to receive E-mail data, the Touchscreen will reflect this activity. For example, you will

see

Receiving

on the Touchscreen followed by

XX/XX E-mail(s)

. If you press

,

All Settings

,

Network

,

E-mail/IFAX

, and then

Manual POP3 Receive

to manually poll the E-mail server for E-mail

data and there are no mail documents waiting to be printed, the machine will display

No Mail

on the

Touchscreen for two seconds.

NOTE

• If your machine is out of paper when receiving data, the received data will be held in the machine’s

memory. This data will be printed automatically after paper is re-inserted into the machine.

• If the received mail is not in a plain text format or an attached file is not in the TIFF-F format, the following

error message will be printed: “ATTACHED FILE FORMAT NOT SUPPORTED. FILE
NAME:XXXXXX.doc
” If the received mail is too large, the following error message will be printed: “E-MAIL
FILE TOO LARGE.
”. If Delete POP Receive Error Mail is ON (default) then the error mail is automatically
deleted from the E-mail server.
