Confirming Necessary Information for Scan to E-Mail and I-Fax

Return to Overview

You may set the e-mail account you are currently using to this machine if you intend to use this machine only for sending a document scanned using the scan to e-mail and I-fax functions in this machine.
In such case, the following information is required:


SMTP server address: This is the server address to send an e-mail.
Authentication method: The following two authentication methods are supported.
(The authentication may not be required depending on the internet provider.)
•SMTP authentication
This is the authentication method in which the SMTP server checks the user name and password before sending e-mails.
•POP before SMTP
This is the authentication method in which the POP server checks the POP address and POP password before sending e-mails. If your provider uses this method, you need to make settings both to send e-mails in this machine.

Preparing to Receive I-Faxes

If the provider uses POP before SMTP as the authentication method to send e-mails or if you want this machine to receive I-faxes, you need another POP 3 e-mail account for this machine in addition to the e-mail account you are currently using. For details on the issue of another e-mail account, please consult with your internet provider or network administrator. To make settings, the following information is required.


Remark
  • Please note that this machine can only receive I-fax images, but not any other type of e-mail.

POP server: The server address that is used when receiving e-mails. In some cases, the address is same as the SMTP server address.
POP address: This is sometimes called as a mail account or mail ID.
POP password: The password that is required to receive e-mails.
