About Sending a Fax as E-mail
You can send fax files and attachments to a recipientÕs e-mail address rather
than to a fax number. When fax files are sent by e-mail, they arrive as TIFF
file attachments to the e-mail message. The recipient can then view the
TIFF files with an e-mail utility or an external image viewing application.
The e-mail message to which the TIFF files are attached includes a URL to
a web page that instructs the recipient how to configure the e-mail
application to view the TIFF file attachments.
Most of the steps for sending fax files to an e-mail address are the same as
for sending fax files to a fax number. The main difference is that you choose
E-mail from the Send As options. You must specify a valid e-mail address
for the recipient. Fax files that you have sent to an e-mail address appear in
Status Manager as job type E-mail.
If you are sending a fax to more than one recipient, choose E-mail from the
Send As options. The application sends the selected files to the e-mail
address of each person in the recipient list. If you have not provided an
e-mail address for a recipient, the fax job to that recipient is not sent.
