Overview 1
Internet faxing (IFAX) 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 any 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.
Note
Internet Fax is available in Black & White only.

your network and mail server. You must ensure the following: a correctly configured IP address for your
machine, an E-mail address for your machine, the mail server(s) IP address, mailbox name and password for
your Brother machine. If you are unsure of any of these items, please contact your systems Administrator.
