Before you can send a server fax, configure fax repository settings. When configured, the printer
transfers faxed images to the repository. The fax server sends the fax to the destination over a phone
line.
You can set up a repository that uses one of the following protocols:
• FTP
• SFTP
• SMB
• SMTP

Before you begin:
• Ensure that FTP or SFTP services are running on the server or computer where images faxed by the
printer are stored. Note the IP address or host name.
• Create a user account and password for the printer. When you use the server fax feature, the
printer logs in using the account, transfers the file to the server or computer, then logs out. Note
the user account and password.
• In the FTP or SFTP root directly, create a directory to use as a fax repository. Note the directory
path.
To configure a fax repository using FTP or SFTP:
1. In the Embedded Web Server, log in as administrator, then click Apps.
2. In the Installed Apps area, click Server Fax.
3. For Display on Device, click Show.
4. For Server and Protocol, click Edit. From the list, select FTP or SFTP.
5. To enable FTP or SFTP, for Client Port, click the toggle button.
6. To select a transfer mode for FTP, click Transfer Mode, then select an option.
• Passive Mode: This option transfers data over a random port specified by the FTP server from
a connection made from the printer.
• Active Mode: This option transfers data over a fixed, known port from a connection made
from the server.
7. Click OK.
8. To configure the FTP or SFTP Fax Server settings, click Setup, then enter the following
information:
• IP Address: Port: Enter the IP address of your fax server, then enter the port number.
• Document Path: Enter the directory path of the folder, beginning at the root of FTP or SFTP
services. For example, //directoryname/foldername.
• Login Name: Enter a user name corresponding to a user account login name on the server.
