CHAPTER 4 INTERNET FAX


4-6

Receiving E-mail or Internet Fax


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

POP3 receiving at regular intervals

POP3 receiving (manually initiated)

SMTP receiving


Using POP3 receiving the FAX/MFC machine must poll the E-mail server to
receive the print jobs. This polling can occur at set intervals (for example, you
can configure the FAX/MFC to poll the E-mail server at 10 minute intervals) or
you can manually poll the server by pressing the Shift + Start button.

If your FAX/MFC starts to receive E-mail print jobs, the LCD panel will reflect
this activity. For example, you will see "RECEIVING" on the LCD panel
followed by "xx MAIL(S)". If you press the Shift + Start buttons to manually
poll the E-mail server for E-mail print jobs and there are no mail documents
waiting to be printed, the FAX/MFC will display "NO MAIL" on the LCD panel
for two seconds.

If your machine is out of paper when receiving data, the received data will be
held in the FAX/MFC’s memory. This data will be printed automatically after
paper is re-inserted into the machine. Memory receive must be switched “ON”.

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 error
mail is automatically deleted from the E-mail Server.
