2.2Overview of Message Board
When the machine is connected to a network, you can operate it using the Web browser on a computer.
Message Board is a management system that enables you to manage documents from a Web browser.
If you save the documents scanned on the machine in a user box in Message Board, you can transmit the
data for the scanned documents via e-mail and fax.
You can also save received faxes in the shared reception box and user box without printing them. Since the
documents can be checked on a computer, you can save the paper usually used to print them.
