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

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:
TYPE1:
TYPE2:
Internet Fax
Do not delete e-mail
Only delete e-mail messages after printing
Delete all e-mail
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.

Internet Fax and Network Print/Network Scanner
87:HEADER PRINT - E-mail header print setting.
OFF:
TYPE1:
TYPE2:
Do not print header
Print SUBJECT/FROM/TO
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 "~" (tilde) symbol will appear on
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
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 Internet 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
[email protected].
Final-Recipient: rfc822; [email protected]
Original-Message-ID:
<[email protected]>
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.
8
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.

Registering addresses
E-mail addresses up to 64 characters long can be assigned to one-touch
keys 01 to 40. It is also possible to make up a group of email addresses
and assign to one-touch dial numbers, but one-touch dial numbers for both
email addresses and telephone numbers cannot be assigned to a single
group.
Note 1:
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 "~" (tilde) symbol will appear on
the LCD as "-1". Both upper and lower case letters can be
used. To switch between cases, press one-touch key 31 (CAPS
key).
Note 2:
Even if the fax machine has 80 one-touch keys, only one touch
keys 01 to 40 can be used for e-mail addresses.
Sending a document
Place a document on the machine, press the one-touch key on which the
recipient's email address is assigned and press Start. After storing the document's image data in memory, the machine will establish a server connection. When this is done, the SENDING message will be displayed. At
the end of the transmission, the result will be displayed on the LCD and a
buzzer will sound. A document can be sent to several e-mail addresses by
pressing the one-touch keys on which they are assigned, but cannot send
to recipients with telephone numbers registered on one-touch keys. If the
same e-mail address is selected twice, the document will be sent only
once. To specify the full e-mail addresses, select MENU, then select
6:INTERNET FAX and then select 1:INTERNET TX to enter each e-mail
addresses individually.
To stop transmission, press the Stop key. Please note that the transmission
will be terminated at once without asking for confirmation.
Internet Fax data is scanned into memory before transmission. If the document is too large to fit into memory, divide it up and make two or more
transmissions. The installation of an add-on memory is recommended if
large documents are normally sent.

and sends it by e-mail. This machine can transmit at a resolution of 200 x
100 dpi in STD mode, 200 x 200 dpi in FINE mode, 300 x 300 dpi or 600
x 600 dpi in EX-FINE and 200 x 200 dpi in PHOTO mode. The images
are compressed using one of the standard formats used on faxes: MH, MR
or MMR.
Note:
600 x 600 dpi in EX-FINE and MMR settings can be changed.
Many Internet Fax products offered by other manufacturers can receive
only in the STD and FINE resolutions and in MH compression mode.
Please note this point if sending a document to an Internet Fax of a different make, but is not be a problem if sending to the same type of Internet
Fax or to a PC. This Internet Fax attaches the following mail text as it
sends a fax document.
There is a TIFF in this mail, which has been sent
from an Internet Facsimile.
You can see the TIFF file by using Imaging of
Windows NT4.0/Windows 95 (OSR 2)/Windows 98/Windows
2000

Receiving Tiff file
This fax machine receives mail messages with Tiff format attachments in
the mail server and prints out the attached files. This fax machine can print
out Tiff files in the Simple Mode defined in ITU-T T.37. It can also
receive files at the 300 x 300 dpi, 600 x 600 dpi or 200 x 400dpi resolutions and files in MR or MMR compression mode. It cannot print out files
of any other Tiff-formats and, if it receives such a file, a communication
error will occur and an error report will be printed.
Note 1:
Files at 600 x 600 dpi resolution cannot be received without an
optional 8M memory installed.
Note 2:
Only Tiff files created by Imaging can be received by the Internet Fax.
Receiving text
Body text of an e-mail can be printed by turning the TEXT PRINT setting
ON. E-mail from an Internet Fax often comes with added messages (text)
before and after the Tiff file and this function can be used to print these

To print out the information in the mail header, set TEXT PRINT to ON.
This fax machine can print only plain format text that has not been
encoded by Base64 etc. If e-mail messages or text-file attachments have
been encoded, printouts may be garbled.
Gateway services
Fax to e-mail
This fax machine can forward incoming fax messages from a G3/G4 fax
machine to an e-mail address. To do this, create a personal mailbox as a
relay mailbox. Then register a one-touch key, which has an e-mail address
assigned to it, in the relay mailbox. Any fax image that is sent to this relay
mailbox will then be forwarded to the assigned email address upon reception. For details of the forwarding operation, please refer to the user guide
for the fax machine.
Note:
Please check the user guide of the fax machine to see if the fax
machine is capable of relay broadcasting.
The following illustration gives a diagrammatic view of how a fax to email gateway operates:
1.
G3/G4 fax machine sends the fax message to the Internet Fax.
2.
The Internet Fax then converts the message to an e-mail and forwards it onto a mail server.
3.
The mail server the sends the e-mail onto a computer or another
Internet Fax.

Internet Fax and Network Print/Network Scanner
E-mail to fax
Images received by e-mail can be forwarded by Internet Fax to any G3/
G4 fax machine. Internet Fax carries out this operation using SMTP
reception. However, this function is not supported by a POP server.
When forwarding an e-mail message to a fax telephone number through
Internet Fax, the e-mail address must be in the format FAX=[telephone
number]@[domain name]. The message can only be sent as an attachment
in Tiff format and there must be no subject or text used in the e-mail.
Note:
Internet Fax can only accept attachments in Tiff format
RFC2301 standard (TIFF S).
The telephone number must be entered using numbers 0 to 9 and characters *, #, -, P and +. If anything else is entered, the fax machine will not
receive the message. The telephone number must not be more than 40 digits long.
The exact mail address format required for e-mail to fax forwarding varies
from one network to another. Consult with the network administrator
about the correct format to use. For example, if the host name of Internet
Fax has been defined as "intfax" with a domain name of "network.com",
enter FAX=[telephone number]@intfax.network.com as the e-mail
address. The mail server and Internet Fax then uses this mail address for
forwarding the message.
To use this function, domain names must be registered from which data
may be received for fax forwarding. This prevents unauthorised access of
the e-mail forwarding function. Up to 5 domain names can be registered,
each up to 64 characters long. Any data for forwarding will only be
accepted by the fax machine if the sender's domain name matches one of
the registered domain names, or a sub-domain name of a registered
domain name.
Note:
Refer to Appendix B for information on mail routing.
The following illustration gives a diagrammatic view of how e-mail to
G3/G4 fax machine gateway operates:
1.
The client sends a message to the mail server using the address format [email protected]. A client can be a computer or an
Internet Fax.
2.
The mail server makes an enquiry to the DNS server about
fax.abc.com.
Internet Fax
23
24
Internet Fax and Network Print/Network Scanner
3.
The DNS server replies to the mail server with the IP address of
fax.abc.com.
4.
The mail server forwards the message onto the Internet Fax.
5.
The Internet Fax then forwards the message onto a G3/G4 fax
machine with the telephone number of 123.
Network scanner
This fax machine can be used as a network scanner. Scanning is carried
out as if sending an Internet Fax, but specifying the email address to which
the scanned document should be sent. The recipient of the transmission,
then receives the document on their PC as a TIFF file. Resolution of the
TIFF file can be set to a maximum of 600 x 600 dpi in EX-FINE mode to
create a high-quality scanned image file.
Note:
The resolution of the scanned image can be set between 300
and 600 dpi through the user function 89:EX.FINE MODE.
When using this fax machine as a scanner, set 90:IFAX SENDER ID to
OFF so that the sender ID will not be added at the top of the document.

Procedure for supported operating systems
NetWare
Recommended procedure:
1.
Install printer driver.
2.
Install network card utility.
3.
Configure network card.
The NetWare server has two modes; printer server mode and remote
printer mode. The network card supports either mode. Using NetWare
requires that the fax machine should be attached as a printer under NetWare control. For detailed configuration, see the utilities manual on the
CD-ROM.
Network Printing
31
Windows NT4.0/2000
Recommended procedure:
1.
Install printer driver.
2.
Install network card utility.
3.
Configure network card.
When printing from Windows NT4.0/2000 please use LPR (Microsoft
TCP/IP Printing) included in Windows NT4.0/2000 Add the LPR port as
the driver output port and assign it the IP Address configured for network
card. For details, see the utilities manual in CD-ROM.
TCP/IP should be added to Windows NT4.0/2000 because it is used for
LPR.
Note:
A warning message may be received about authentification
while installing the driver on Windows2000. Please ignore this
message if it appears, as it will not cause any problem with the
installation of the driver.
Windows 95/98
Recommended procedure:
1.
Install printer driver.
2.
Install network card utility.
3.
Install LPR utility.
4.

TCP/IP must be installed in Windows 95/98 in order to use LPR.
Windows 3.1
Recommended procedure:
32
1.
Install printer driver.
2.
Run SETUP.EXE from the Win31 directory on the supplied CDROM.
Internet Fax and Network Print/Network Scanner
3.
Configure network card.
When printing from Windows 3.1, a NetWare Server is required as Windows 3.1 is not a network operating system. Printing via LPR from Windows 3.1 connected to the network with other commercial TCP/IP
protocols, is not assured.
Other operating systems
Other operating systems, such as Macintosh or UNIX, are not supported.
Configuring from network utilities
The network card configurations may be altered from a PC via the network using the utilities on CD-ROM. These can be accessed from the
installer. With these utilities, TCP/IP and NetWare parameters may be
configured. For details, see the Utilities Manual.
Note:
When using the above utilities, the setup screen for EtherTalk,
which the fax machine does not support, will be displayed.
Please set EtherTalk "Disable" to prevent it from being used.
Configuration
Network settings can be altered by selecting 93:NETWORK SETTINGS.
To print from Windows using LPR, it is necessary to set the IP
ADDRESS. This is not required if printing from NetWare only, but it is
necessary for using Internet Fax functions.
•
1: IP ADDRESS - Sets the IP address.
•
2: SUBNETMASK - Sets the subnet mask.
•
3: DEFAULT GATEWAY - Sets the default gateway address.
The following three settings are specific to Network Printing.
•
80:LAN PRINT T.O. (5 sec., 30 sec., 5min.) - It is impossible to
judge whether printing data is not being transmitted due to network
delay or the end of the data stream. This time-out configuration
allows the device to cancel a print job when no printing data can be
found after a specified time has elapsed since the last data was submitted. If the default configuration is acceptable, please do not alter
it.
Network Printing
33
•
81:PAPER SIZE CHECK (ON, OFF) - With this configuration ON,
an alarm will be displayed at the LCD when the paper size specified
from the PC and that of the tray specified by fax machine are different. If this alarm is displayed, set the correct paper size in the specified tray. Printing will begin when the tray is closed. After the
printing, set the same recording paper as configured for the tray, or
alter the tray configuration to the correct paper size. With this configuration OFF, printing will be conducted neglecting the paper size difference.
•
82: AUTO TRAY SW. (ON, OFF) - With this configuration ON,
printing will be done using paper in another tray when paper is out in
the 1st or 2nd tray and paper size of the1st and 2nd tray is the same.

If a NetWare banner cannot be printed, alter the configuration at the PC to
"No Banner Used", or at NetWare Server to "No Banner Sent". (If in
doubt ask the NetWare network administrator for details.)
Although the network card supports FTP and LPR banners, when a problem occurs with banner printing, set the banner to "NO" with the affixed
utilities.

Troubleshooting
Option board error
When OPTION BOARD ERROR is displayed on the fax machine LCD,
an error may have been caused at the interface with the network card. In
this case, turn off the fax machine, check that the network card is correctly
installed and power up again.
LAN data error
When LAN DATA ERROR is displayed on the fax LCD, there may be a
problem in the printing data transmitted via the network. As the printing
data will be cancelled, please conduct the printing again. If this error reoccurs while printing documents the fault may be a paper jam. Please
clear the paper jam.
Note:
When a print job was cancelled on a PC, LAN DATA ERROR
may be displayed. This is because defective data may have been
transmitted to the fax machine.
Network problem
If any other printing problems occur other than the errors mentioned in
this section, refer to the utilities manual in the CD-ROM.

Appendix A - Operating
Instructions
General conditions
To use Internet Fax, a network card must be installed in this machine and
connected to a LAN. The network card for this machine can be connected
to a 10BaseT or 10/100baseTX LAN. Also, to make a LAN connection,
an IP Address, Subnet Mask and Default Gateway must be configured on
this fax machine. Ask the network administrator for these settings.
If the LAN uses a DHCP server, it is not necessary to configure these settings as the server will do it automatically.
Internet Fax settings can be configured either using the network tool or on
the fax machine itself, but DHCP settings are supported by the network
tool only.
After setting the correct IP Address, Subnet Mask and Default Gateway,
configure the fax machine for Internet Fax transmission/reception.
Internet fax transmission
To send an Internet Fax message, a mail server is required from which to
send email. Please consult the network administrator about the settings
listed below, which are required in order to make a connection to the mail
server.
These settings are similar to those of popular mail clients such as Netscape
Messenger, Outlook and Eudora.
•
SMTP Server Address /Name - Enter the SMTP server name or IP
Address. If entering the server's IP Address, be sure to type the dots
(full-stops) dividing the numbers as well (e.g., 192.168.1.1). Enter a
server name only if a DNS server has been configured.
•
DNS server's IP ADDRESS - This setting is not required if the SMTP
server has been specified by its IP ADDRESS. A DNS server can
convert a server name into an IP ADDRESS.
Appendix A - Operating Instructions
37
•
HOST NAME - Enter the host name of this machine. If the host name
is not known, enter the e-mail address of this machine instead.
•
E-mail Address - Enter the e-mail address assigned to this machine.
Transmission can be carried out when the above settings have been configured.
To send a fax, place a document on the machine and press the one-touch
button where the e-mail address of the recipient has been registered. The
document will be scanned into memory and before transmission.
The data will be converted into a TIFF file and sent to the recipient.
Internet fax reception
To receive an Internet Fax message, a mail server is required for sending
e-mail. Please consult the network administrator about the settings
required to connect to the mail server.
•
POP Server Address /Name - Enter the POP server name or IP
Address. If entering the server's IP Address, be sure to type the dots
(full-stops) dividing the numbers as well (e.g., 192.168.1.1). Enter a
server name only if a DNS server has been configured.
•
DNS server's IP ADDRESS - This setting is not required if the POP
server has been specified by its IP ADDRESS. DNS server can convert a server name into an IP ADDRESS.
•
POP server user name - Enter the user name assigned to this machine
for accessing the POP server.
•
POP server password - Enter the password assigned to this machine
for accessing the POP server.
The fax machine is ready to receive Internet Fax messages when the above
settings have been configured.
To receive a fax message, the fax machine will access the server automatically at regular intervals according to the POP Interval Time setting. If
there is mail, the fax machine will print it out automatically. Please note
that this fax machine can receive TIFF files and text-format mail only. It
cannot receive files in any other format.
Note:
38
Internet Fax can only accept Tiff format to RFC2301 standard
(TIFF S).

Appendix B - Mail Server Settings
To use the gateway service of e-mail to Internet Fax to G3/G4 fax
machine, the mail server and the DNS server must be configured to forward e-mail to the Internet Fax. This document gives some examples of
settings for forwarding mail to the Internet Fax.
The settings given here are only examples. Servers do not necessarily
have to be configured as shown in order to use the gateway service.
The domain name, host names and IP addresses given in this text are for
example only. These values must be set in accordance with the network
setup being used.
The setting changes explained here can be made only by a network administrator.
DNS server
Firstly, register the Internet Fax onto the DNS server. In this example, the
settings for a type of DNS server called BIND run on UNIX are explained.
Assume that there is an existing network of the following setup:
1.
Network domain name:abc.com
2.
Host name of the mail server in this domain:mail.abc.com
3.
IP address of this mail server:192.168.001.100
4.
Host name of the DNS server in this domain:dns.abc.com
5.
IP address of this DNS server:192.168.001.101
6.
IP address of the client PC:192.168.001.050
7.
Host name of the client PC:user.abc.com
Now, install the Internet Fax on this network.
1.
Host name of the Internet Fax: fax.abc.com
2.
IP address of the Internet Fax:192.168.001.105
Add a record of the Internet Fax on the zone file of the DNS server
(dns.abc.com).

Also, add a PTR record of the fax machine to the reverse zone file.
Pointer (PTR) record:
100.1.168.192.in-addr.arpa.IN
101.1.168.192.in-addr.arpa.IN

fax.abc.com.
When all the records have been updated, restart the DNS server.
After the above configuration has been made, all mail addressed to
<[email protected]> will be forwarded to the Internet Fax.
Mail server
In many cases, the DNS server configuration explained above is all that is
required to use the e-mail to fax relay service. However, some mail servers are configured to process all mail addressed to hosts belonging to their
domain as mail to themselves. If mail server mail.abc.com has been set up
in this way, it will regard mail to [email protected] as mail to one of its
users and will not forward it to the Internet Fax. To prevent this, it is necessary to configure the mail server so that it will not process mail
addressed host fax.abc.com. Please refer to the network administrator for
the procedure on how to configure the mail server.
