Internet fax transmission and reception
A fax can be transmitted and received via the Internet. The internet fax function contributes to savings on communication costs, especially for long-distance and overseas fax transmissions.
Transmission to an ordinary e-mail address is also possible.
PC-FAX transmission
When sending a document composed on a PC by fax, it can be transmitted directly from the PC with no need of a printout copy, keeping a high image quality with no deterioration.
Direct transmission saves consumption of paper, which is otherwise needed to print a copy only for fax transmission.
PC-FAX reception
A message received by the fax main unit can be downloaded into a PC without printing, and printout can be limited to only the message truly needing it. Paper consumption can be reduced by not printing unimportant incoming messages. Circulation of a received fax can be handled easily from a PC.

document
Using the main unit scanner, a paper document can be scanned into a PC.
ADF enables efficient scanning of high volume documents.
Network printer function
The unit can be efficiently used as a shared printer for multiple networked PCs with no need for additional printer installation.
Received fax forwarding
Based on a preset condition like the sender’s fax number, a received fax meeting this condition can be forwarded to the designated user PC.
Because an e-mail address can be specified as the forwarding destination,a person away from the office can receive a message simply by checking for e-mail arrival if carrying a mobile computer.
A received fax can be stored and managed as electronic data, which eliminates concerns about paper filing locations and space. Integrated data management is possible if a shared folder is produced on the network.
