Auto Forwarding and Backing Up Received Faxes

You can configure the settings to automatically forward and save a received fax to a destination specified in advance. You can also specify whether to print the received fax on the machine.
The following can be specified as forwarding and save destinations:
Fax number
E-mail address (e-mail/I-Fax)
Shared folder on a computer
FTP server
For destinations other than a fax number, the fax is forwarded or saved as a black and white PDF file.
* When specifying an I-Fax destination, the destination device must be able to view PDF files.
This section describes how to configure the settings using Remote UI from a computer.
On the control panel, select [Menu] in the [Home] screen, and then select [Function Settings] to configure the settings. [Forwarding Settings]
Administrator privileges are required.
Required Preparations
When specifying a forwarding or backup destination other than a fax number, prepare the fax to be sent or saved to that destination.
The required preparations are the same as when sending and saving scanned data.
