Handling Junk Faxes

You can set the machine to not print out junk faxes received by the machine.

The Confidential Fax Inbox, like the Memory RX Inbox, temporarily stores documents received via Fax, Internet Fax, or Intranet Fax.

However, unlike the Memory RX Inbox, you can store received documents in one of up to 50 folders in the Confidential Fax Inbox, based on the sender's registration number. You can also restrict access to each folder by assigning a password.

The Confidential Fax Inbox is a fax solution which offers comprehensive security, ensuring only authorized individuals can view received documents. Users with access to the received documents can perform the operations shown below.
