Be very careful not to send image data files that are too large.
Your mail server's system administrator may have placed a limit on the amount of data
that can be sent in one e-mail transmission. If this limit is exceeded, the e-mail will not
be delivered to the recipient. Even if there is no limit and your e-mail is successfully
delivered, a large data file may take a long time to be received and place a heavy bur-
den on the recipient's network, depending on the recipient's network (Internet) connec-
tion environment.
If large image data files are repeatedly sent, the resulting burden on the network may
slow down the speed of other, unrelated data transmissions and in some cases, may
even cause the mail server or network to go down.
The example images below will produce the following file sizes when scanned as A4
(8-1/2" x 11") size originals:
Black and white scanning
If multiple images are scanned, the file size will be approximately (Size of each
image as indicated above) x (Number of images scanned).
Although the actual limitation depends on your network environment, a general guide-
line for the maximum file size for Scan to E-mail is 2000 KB. In cases where you need
to send multiple documents, try such measures as lowering the resolution mode.
