The Send function enables you to send scanned image or document data to file servers, or send it by e-mail or I-fax. A variety of file formats are supported (JPEG, TIFF, PDF, XPS, OOXML), which offer you greater flexibility in accommodating digital workplace environments.

If the Universal Send Advanced Feature Set is activated, you can add Office Open XML (pptx) to the list of supported file formats.

In addition to normal facsimile functions, the machine offers you Super G3 compatibility, which enables you to transmit documents at high speeds, greatly reducing transmission costs as compared to conventional facsimile machines.
