What Is Internet Fax/Intranet Fax?
Internet Fax (I-fax) is a function that enables you to send and receive images via the Internet, as opposed to a telephone line.
The setup and method are the same as for e-mail. You can send image data as an attachment to an e-mail.
The sender scans an original and specifies a destination in the same way as a G3 FAX, and the receiver prints out the I-fax after receiving it from the POP server.
Using Intranet Fax you can send and receive I-fax between compatible imageRUNNER ADVANCE machines using office LAN with TCP/IP protocol. Data is transmitted directly with IP transmission, without the need for a mail server.
I-Fax System
NOTE
Standards for I-fax are defined by ITU-T (International Telecommunication Union - Telecommunication Standardization Sector). You can send and receive with other manufacturer's machines as long as that machine is ITU-T compliant. The imageRUNNER ADVANCE is compliant with Recommendation T.37 (Procedures for the transfer of facsimile data via store-and-forward on the Internet).
Data transmission is not available between I-fax and IP Fax which is compliant with ITU-T Recommendation T.38 (Procedures for real-time Group 3 facsimile communication over IP networks).
Benefits of Using Internet Fax
Reduce transmission costs
G3 FAX transmission costs increase with transmission time and distance. If a line with fixed rate is installed, you can control the transmission cost because the cost of I-fax is fixed regardless of the transmission time and distance. It is recommended that you use this when sending and receiving large volume documents.
High resolution transmission
You can send and receive at a resolution of up to 600 dpi (for Full Mode).
Confirm transmission
The sender can be notified as to whether the document was received by the recipient.
Color transmission
You can send and receive color documents. Also, you can send and receive with another manufacturer's machine as long as that machine is ITU-T compliant.
Intranet-Fax System
Benefits of Using Intranet Fax
Not require a server
Intranet Fax has benefits as shown below because unlike E-Mail or I-fax, it does not require a server.
You can configure a system environment with ease.
You can send a high capacity data including high resolution images or a large number of pages without thinking of the load on a server.
