Using Remote Faxes
You can send and receive faxes with a Canon multifunction machine that does not have a fax function, by using the line of a different Canon multifunction machine with a fax function on the same network.
Since you can share the fax function and telephone line between devices, you can reduce the cost of installing the function and line, and use faxes more efficiently.
