Internet Communication Features
Internet Fax Transmission
The DP-2500/3000 allows you to transmit documents over the Internet to another Internet Fax or a PC. The
document is first scanned and converted into a TIFF-F formatted image file, and then transmitted to the remote
location as an attachment file to an email using MIME encoding.
The email system at the receiving end must support MIME. Otherwise, the attachment file will be detached
and lost.
When you send an email message to someone, the DP-2500/3000 uses Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP)
to transfer your outgoing mail to your SMTP mail server, which in turn uses SMTP to send your mail to the
Internet.
Internet Mail Reception
The DP-2500/3000 allows you to receive and print a PC transmitted email automatically or manually,
depending on its setup configuration. However, if the received email includes file attachment in a format other
than TIFF-F, such as Word, Excel, Power Point, the DP-2500/3000 prints an error message instead.

Internet Communication Features
Inbound Routing
Using the Inbound Routing feature, the DP-2500/3000 can route documents received from a G3 fax machine
to email address(s) or to Internet Fax machine(s) connected to a LAN as an email, as well as to other G3 fax
machine(s) over the telephone line.
When an incoming Internet Fax, email or a regular fax document is received, the DP-2500/3000, checks
for the following:
1. First, the DP-2500/3000 checks whether a sub-address is included. If it is, it will look for a sub-address
match within its auto dialer and will route the documents to the corresponding stations email address(s)
and/or telephone number(s).
2. If no sub-address is specified, then the DP-2500/3000 tries to match the originating fax machine’s Numeric
ID (TSI) with the TSI routing within its auto dialer and will route the documents to the corresponding stations
email address(s) and/or telephone number(s).

Relayed Transmission
The DP-2500/3000 allows you to transmit an email received from an Internet Fax or PC connected to the LAN
to multiple fax machines via a telephone line. You can attach files with the TIFF-F format to this email.
Using the Sub-address specified by the originating fax machine, the DP-2500/3000 can then route the
received documents to the remote DP-2500/3000 via an email, which can then relay these documents to final
destinations where the final recipient is a regular G3 fax machine.
The DP-2500/3000 also allows you to convert a data file from various application programs such as
spreadsheet into a TIFF-F format file and then transmit this file attached to an email.
To convert applications into a TIFF-F formatted file, however, requires you to first download the software
(printer driver) from the web site listed below. The second part requires you to install the software on your PC.

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR MACHINE
Important Information
The DP-2500/3000 uses the same communication protocols as email: the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP).
The differences from a standard G3 fax communication using the Public Telephone Network (PSTN) are as
follows.
Differences between Internet Fax and Regular Fax
A regular Fax machine goes off-hook, dials, and the phone network completes a circuit over phone lines to the
receiving fax. You pay for the circuit. The two faxes negotiate a connection, synchronize and exchange image
data.
The Internet Fax works like an email, the image data is broken down into packets and transmitted through your
Local Area Network (LAN) to the Internet or Intranet instead of using a telephone company’s network, thus
saving you long distance costs.
Transmitted Document Confirmation
1. The DP-2500/3000 does not directly connect to the final destination, but rather connects to a Mail Server via
LAN. Therefore, if a document cannot be correctly transmitted due to an error, the erroneous mail may be
returned from the Mail Server to the DP-2500/3000.
2. The erroneous mail may take a long time to return (20 to 30 minutes) depending on the destination location,
traffic on the network or LAN system configuration.
3. Depending on the Mail Server, it is also possible that erroneous mail is not returned at all. Therefore, when
transmitting important or time sensitive documents, it is recommended that you follow up with a telephone
call to confirm reception.
4. Documents cannot be transmitted correctly if the destination Mail Server does not conform to the MIME

Important Information
Sending Document Size via LAN
When transmitting via LAN, the transmitter is incapable of identifying the receiver’s recording paper size
capability, and thus it will not reduce the document size. Therefore, when transmitting via LAN, it is
recommended that you use only A4/Letter size documents. If a Ledger/B4 size document is transmitted and
the receiver is only able to print A4/Letter size, the communication will fail when the Fax Parameter No. 141
(LAN XMT REDUCTION) is set to "1:Invalid" or the Select Mode "LEDGER EMAIL XMT" is set to "On".
Sending a Document to a PC via LAN
When transmitting a document to an email address, the following instructions are sent as text message in
addition to the TIFF-F formatted image file.
An Image data in TIFF-F format has been attached to this email.
You can download the TIFF-F Image Viewer from the following URL addresses:

Programming or Retrieving Parameters via Email
Using Email to Program or Retrieve Parameters
This feature is a powerful tool, which provides a convenient and easy way of retrieving or programming
Internet Parameters, Phone Book Dialing Numbers, Program keys and Journal retrieval from your PC by
sending a text email message to the DP-2500/3000.
Using your email application’s "Subject:" line as a command-input field, you can request the DP-2500/3000 to
perform the following commands:
"Subject:" Line CommandFunction
1#set parameters(password)#Programs the Internet Parameters
2#get parameters(password)#Retrieves the Internet Parameters
3#set abbr(password)#Programs the Auto Dialer
4#get abbr(password)#Retrieves the Auto Dialer Data
5#get jnl(password)#Retrieves the current Journal data
Where:"set" is used to program the data
"get" is used to retrieve the data
"parameters" represents Internet Parameters
"abbr" represents Auto Dialer
"jnl" represents Journal
"password" is the Remote Password programmed in the DP-2500/3000’s User
Parameters
(i.e. 123456789). Must be enclosed within the parenthesis "( )".
The command must be enclosed within the hash (#) signs.
Using a PC to Input the Internet Parameters Remotely
This feature provides a convenient and an easy way to input the Internet Parameters right from your PC by
sending a text email message to the DP-2500/3000.
