Restricting the Send Function
You can set various send functions such as restricting new destination or send domain.
IMPORTANT
If a destination type in [Limit New Destination] is set to 'On', all settings stored in the settings history are erased, regardless of the destination type.

Restricting Sending to New Addresses
By restricting sending of faxes, e-mails, I-faxes, and files to new destinations using the procedure below, data can only be sent to previously registered destinations. As you can no longer enter or send to new destinations, setting this mode with an Address Book PIN increases security when sending. Sending is only allowed in the following cases when this mode is set:
If you specify a destination stored in the Address Book
If you specify a destination obtained via an LDAP server
If you specify a destination by pressing a one-touch button
If you recall stored [Favorite Settings] including destinations
If you select [Send to Myself]
