Internet Fax

Internet fax settings

General

Before using Internet Fax, consult with the network administrator about correct network settings.
There are two types of setting values for Internet Fax, which are as fol­lows:
Data stored on the fax machine.
Data recorded on the network card.
To print out a list of the setting values on the fax machine, using the con­trol panel of the fax machine, select MENU, then select 9:REPORT PRINT and then select 6:CONFIGURATION.
To print out the settings stored on the network interface card (NIC) or its current status using the control panel of the fax machine, select MENU, then select 9:REPORT PRINT and then select 9:NIC CONFIGURA­TION. Alternatively, select MENU, then select 9:REPORT PRINT and then select 10:NIC INFORMATION.
Alternatively, if the black push button on the NIC is pressed for 3 seconds and released, a report similar to that obtained from the NIC INFORMA­TION menu is printed out together with a NIC self-diagnostic report.
Note: If power is turned on on while pressing this button down, the
network card will initialise its settings.
Please refer to manual for the network card, supplied on the CD, in con­junction with this guide as it explains how to use the network card. Please note, however, that the descriptions in the NIC manual are based on where the network card is installed in a LED printer and that operations described in the manual may not apply to this Internet Fax. The network card manual does not explain the functions of Internet Fax. The network card settings explained in the manual for network print do apply to the fax machine.
Internet Fax 3

Settings

Internet Fax settings can be viewed by selecting MENU, then 11:SETUP and then 7:LAN OPTIONS.
When 7:LAN OPTIONS is selected, the display shows user functions 80 to 93. User functions 80 to 82 are for network printing. Details of these settings are given in Network Printing.
User functions from 83 onward are for Internet Fax and will not be dis­played if the network card does not have an Internet Fax facility.
User function 93 (NETWORK SETTINGS) is for configuring the net­work card. These settings are explained in detail further on this user’s guide and can be changed over a network using various tools.

User functions

83:POP INTERVAL - Intervals when the fax machine polls the server for any incoming e-mail (POP reception). 0 to 60 minutes, adjustable by the minute. If set to 0, no automatic polling is carried out.
84:DELETE POP MSG - Whether or not to delete received e-mail from the mail server. The settings are:
OFF: Do not delete e-mail TYPE1: Only delete e-mail messages after printing TYPE2: Delete all e-mail
Internet Fax 5
Note 1: If a setting other than TYPE2 has been selected, e-mail remains
on the server. Make sure e-mail is deleted from the server man­ually, e.g., from another PC.
Note 2: This fax machine keeps a log of up to 50 communications,
which is used to prevent any e-mail messages that have already been read from being received again. However, if there are more than 50 messages on the server, you may start receiving the same e-mail messages repeatedly. When e-mail messagees have been deleted from the mail server using a PC, manually activate POP reception on the fax machine while there is no mail. This operation erases the log of the previous 50 commu­nications. If automatic POP reception is carried out while there is no mail, the log is also erased. Therefore, if regularl deletions of mail is carried out on the server before the number of records on the log reaches 50, this operation will not be nec­essary.
85:TIME BETWEEN GMT - Time difference from GMT. This value is required in order to create e-mail headers. The time difference must be set.
86:TEXT PRINT - Whether or not to print the body text of email. If this setting is ON, the text in an e-mail message is printed out. Please note that only US-ASCII characters in the text can be printed as shown in the fol­lowing table. Any characters that cannot be printed will be shown as spaces. Depending on the e-mail client used, text may not be printed or come out garbled.

87:HEADER PRINT - E-mail header print setting.
OFF: Do not print header TYPE1: Print SUBJECT/FROM/TO TYPE2: Print all header information
This setting is only valid when the TEXT Print setting is ON.
88:CODING MODE - Coding mode for TIFF file images sent by Internet Fax. Select from MH/MR/MMR. Please note that other manufacturers' Internet Fax products often support only MH. This machine supports MR and MMR modes in addition to MH. The rate of compression is MH (low); MR (medium); MMR (high).
89:EX.FINE MODE - Scan resolution of EX.FINE mode for Internet Fax: 300 dpi or 600 dpi.
90:IFAX SENDER ID - Whether or not to add the sender ID to images scanned by Internet Fax. This setting will always apply when using Inter­net Fax, regardless of the setting for 23:SENDER ID ON/OFF. When using Internet Fax as a scanner, turn this setting OFF to prevent the sender ID data from appearing in scanned images.
91:DOMAIN NAME - This setting is required when forwarding e-mail received by SMTP to PSTN/ISDN. Up to 5 domain names, each up to 64­characters long, can be entered from which data may be received. When an SMTP reception request is received, the e-mail is only received if the sender's domain name matches one of the registered domain names. If there is no match, the fax machine assumes that the e-mail cannot be received by Internet Fax and will not start reception. For example, if only network.com is registered, only e-mail from the domain network.com or its sub-domain will be received.
Note: Latin letters, numbers and symbols are assigned to one-touch
keys. Also, symbols can be entered using either one-touch key 20 or numeric key 0. The symbols available are ! # & ' ( ) * + ,
- . / : ; = ? the LCD as "-1". Both upper and lower case letters can be used. To switch between cases, press one-touch key 31 (CAPS key).
92:MDN (Message Disposition Notification) - Whether or not to add MDN to transmissions. MDN is a request for confirmation on whether or not the message has been read. If the recipient is an Internet Fax or a mail client that supports MDN, it will return this confirmation. The format of the notification varies depending on the type of the receiving Internet Fax
Internet Fax 7
·
@ ” _ % ~ . The "~" (tilde) symbol will appear on
or mail client. If the recipient is the same Internet Fax machine, notifica­tion in the following RFC compliant format will be transmitted.
Note 1: This setting determines whether or not an MDN request will be
sent with transmission. When this fax machine receives e-mail accompanied with an MDN request, it will always return MDN to the sender regardless of this setting.
Note 2: If a file other than the TIFF formats compatible with this Inter-
net Fax is received and the REPORT setting under 73:ERR. REPORT (MCF.) is ON, error MDN will be returned to the sender automatically regardless of the MDN setting.
Note 3: When this setting is ON, the recipient of a transmission returns
a MDN. To print a MDN, the TEXT PRINT setting must be ON.
Example of MDN format is as follows:
Subject: Automatic Disposition Notification (processed) - hello!
The message you sent on Wed, 19 Jan 2000 15:28:28 +0900 regarding "hello!" has been processed by abc@network.com.
Final-Recipient: rfc822; abc@network.com
Original-Message-ID: <3885598C.E47DF614@fax.nework.com>
Disposition: automatic-action/MDN-sent­Automatically; processed
Note: Some mail clients and Internet Fax products that are currently
on the market are unable to receive this MDN format correctly.
93:NETWORK SETTINGS - By selecting this user function, the follow­ing network settings can be altered.
Note 1: After making changes to these settings, press the MENU key to
put the fax machine into stand-by mode. After a few seconds' pause, the LCD will indicate that the network card is being ini­tialised and the data on the network card will be updated when this message disappears. Do not press the MENU key again while the initialisation message is displayed as it may prevent the settings from being updated correctly.
Note 2: Latin letters, numbers and symbols are assigned to one-touch
keys. Also, symbols can be entered using either one-touch key

Note: 6:POP USER ID and 7:POP PASSWORD settings in the fax
machine must match the POP3 user name already entered in the server
8:DNS P. SRV ADDRESS (Domain Name Service Primary Server) ­Sets the IP address of the DNS primary server. This will not be required if the server is connected directly using its IP address.
9:DNS S. SRV ADDRESS (Domain Name Service Secondary Server) - Sets the IP address of the DNS secondary server. Enter this setting only if a secondary server has been set up.
10:HOST NAME - Enter the host name defined on this machine. Maximum length: 64 characters.
Internet Fax 9
11:FAX Email Address - Enter the email address defined on this machine. Maximum length: 64 characters.
12:DSN (Delivery Status Notification) - If a mail server that has a DSN function receives a message, it will send a delivery confirmation to the sender of the message. If the mail server receiving the message does not support DSN, it is advisable to change this setting to OFF as the server may not be able to handle the message correctly and cause a communication error. However, some servers can send mail to mail servers which do not support DSN function and no delivery notifica­tion will be sent in this case.
Note 1: For this fax machine to receive a delivery notification, the
TEXT PRINT setting must be turned on.
Note 2: When a message is sent with this setting ON, the recipient of the
transmission returns a MDN. To print it, the TEXT PRINT set­ting must be ON.
13:NIC INITIALIZE - Initialises the network card back to its original factory settings.
Note: No warning message will be given if this option is selected.
Please check carefully before carrying out this operation.
