Device Address Book ..................................................................................................................................................... 231

Network Address Book ................................................................................................................................................. 235

LAN Fax Address Book.................................................................................................................................................. 235

An address book is a list of individual contacts, each associated with an email address, fax number, or scan destination. You can configure the printer to use a Network Address Book or the Device Address

Book for email or Internet fax. The Network Address Book looks up addresses from an LDAP directory. If you do not have an LDAP server, you can use the Device Address Book. If you configure both address books, users are presented with a choice to use either address book at the control panel.

Device Address Book

Email addresses are stored in the Device Address Book. An Internet fax address is the email address assigned to an Internet fax machine or service.

Manually Editing the Address Book

You can use contacts, groups, or Favorites to edit and organize the address book manually.

Viewing Contacts

A contact is a user with an associated email address, fax number, or scan destination. Contacts can be added to groups or marked as a Favorite.

To view a contact, click the Address tab, then do one of the following:

− To view all contacts in the address book, under Address Book, select All Contacts.

Importing Addresses Using Email

The Import Using Email feature adds email addresses to the Device Address Book from emails sent to the printer. Use this feature to populate the address book without manually typing address information.

You can allow users to send encrypted email by storing encryption certificates from received signed email.

Note: Xerox recommends that you disable the Import Using Email feature after the Device Address

Book is populated sufficiently. When this feature is enabled, the Device Address Book can fill quickly.

For example, if you send an email message to the printer containing 30 recipient addresses in the

CC field, and you allow the printer to add addresses in the CC field, all 30 addresses are added to the address book.
