Internet fax

Overview

Internet faxing (I-Fax) allows you to send and receive fax documents using the Internet as the transport
mechanism. Documents are transmitted in E-mail messages as attached TIFF-F files. This means that
computers are also able to receive and send documents, providing that the computer has as an application
that can generate and view TIFF-F files, you can use Microsoft® Imaging or a TIFF-F viewer application. Any
documents sent via the machine will automatically be converted into a TIFF-F format. If you wish to send and
receive messages to and from your machine, your mail application on the computer must be able to support
the MIME format.

I-Fax is available in Black & White only.
