If your E-mail is returned
If a Scan to E-mail is not successfully transmitted, an e-mail informing you of this fact
is sent to the return address configured in the SMTP server. If this happens, read the
e-mail and determine the cause of the error, and then repeat the transmission.
Important points when using scan to E-mail
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 burden on the recipient's network, depending on the recipient's
network (Internet) connection 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 images on the following page will produce the following file sizes when scanned
as A4 size or 8-1/2" x 11" size originals:
File size of text
original A when
Resolution
Mono 2 gradation
75 dpi Approx. 10 KB
300 dpi Approx. 34 KB
* All sizes are for image files created in TIFF MMR (G4) format.
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
guideline for the maximum file size for Scan to E-mail is 2000 KB (2 MB). In cases
where you need to send multiple documents, try such measures as lowering the
resolution mode.
