Forwarding to a Mobile Computing Device
You can forward faxes via e-mail to a mobile computing device (laptop) with e-mail access, enabling the recipient to view the file on their mobile device while out of the office.
A total of 256 e-mail addresses, shared computer folders and other forwarding destinations can be registered, and you can perform a sequential broadcast transmission to all destinations (Universal Send). This enables users both in and out of the office to view the same document, on desktop computers and laptops respectively.
If you receive an urgent fax while out of the office, even if the fax is forwarded, you may have limited opportunities to check your laptop while out of the office and you have no way of knowing precisely when you receive a forwarded fax. However, you can set to receive automatic e-mail notification to your mobile phone when you receive a forwarded fax to your laptop.
By setting a group address as the forwarding destination, you can perform a sequential broadcast transmission.

The notification e-mail is sent at the same time as the fax is forwarded.
You can set to send a notification e-mail only when a forwarding error occurs.

Forwarding done notices viewed on a mobile phone may have different layouts depending on the model of your phone.
Fax sender information is not included in the notification e-mail. Also, you cannot edit the content of the notification e-mail.
The notification e-mail also includes a link to the folder in which the forwarded document is stored.
It is recommended that you send a test mail prior to use.
