Points to Note When Sending E-mails

Security Issues
E-mails are sent via the Internet, connecting computers from all
over the world. As a result, precautions must be taken relating to
security issues such that information is not easily seen or altered
by third parties.
Therefore, we recommend that you use methods to ensure that
important information is secured. You are also advised not to
reveal the e-mail address of this printer to third parties to avoid
receiving spam.
Caution Regarding Internet Provider and E-mail Features
• In the case where a flat-rate contract with the Internet
provider exists and the user is not always connected to the
network, a telephone charge will be incurred every time this
printer retrieves data regularly from the mail server.
• Connect the printer to an private IP address. Functionality of
this printer is not guaranteed when it is assigned public IP
addresses.
• When receiving e-mails via POP, always apply an exclusive
e-mail account for the printer. Using a common e-mail
account shared with other users will result in errors.
• When the internet connection speed is slow, it takes time to
receive large amounts of data such as image data.
• There are also providers that allow reception of e-mails via
SMTP. Detailed adjustments with the provider are required in
such cases.
• When setting up the e-mail configuration in an environment
where MTA support is set up in private segments, match the
operating configuration.
