Features
QRelay Network
This Feature saves your time and long distance phone line costs when sending an Internet Fax directly from your 
machine to the end receiving station(s).
A Relay Network is basically composed of an Originating Station, which can be an Internet Fax Machine (your 
machine) or a PC, a Relaying Internet Fax Machine (another machine), and End-receiving station(s), which can be 
regular G3 Fax machines.
By simply sending a Document(s) from your machine or an email message from a PC to the Relay Machine, which is 
then transmitted by your machine to the end receiving station(s) using regular phone lines as a normal G3 Fax 
message. (PC can have TIFF-F or text (.txt) file attachment)
 
The end receiving station(s) is (are) usually local in relation to the Relay Station, which incurs a local telephone 
changed for the Fax Transmission.
After the Relay Station completes its transmission to the end receiving station(s), a Communication Journal is sent 
back to the originator from the Relaying Internet Fax confirming whether the Internet Relayed Transmission is 
successful. Any Relay activity informations is sent by an email from the Relaying Internet Fax to its Manager’s Email 
Address, which is programmed in the Relaying Internet Fax machine’s User Parameters (see page 
29).
To use the Internet Relayed Transmission, just follow the set up procedure described on pages 62 to 71 and obtain 
certain information provided by the Relaying machine operator. A sample network is shown in Figure 1.
Figure 1 shows a sample network as seen from New York (Initiating Station), London and Singapore (Relay 
Stations) are connected to New York, and the End Receiving Stations are Stockholm, Rome, Tokyo, Hong Kong, 
and Sydney.
With this sample network using two Relay Stations, you can send a document with one operation to any combination of 
stations in the network via the London Relay Station and/or Singapore Relay Station.

QSetting Up Your Machine as an Internet Relay Station
To set up your machine as a Relay Station, the following parameters must be set properly.
1. Relay XMT (Fax Parameter No. 142)
Selecting whether the machine will accept and performs G3 relayed transmission (see page 87).
1) Invalid- Machine will not accept a Relay XMT request.
2) Va l id- Machine will accept a Relay XMT request.
2. Relay XMT Report (Fax Parameter No. 143)
Selecting how the COMM. Journal for relayed transmission is sent to the originator.
1) Off- Do not send
2) Always- The COMM. Journal is always sent after a Relay Communication is completed or has failed.
3) Incomplete only- The COMM. Journal is sent if the Relay Communication to the destination has failed.
3. Relay XMT Password (User’s Parameter) (See note 3)
Enter a Relay XMT Password (up to 10 characters) to be used for protection against unauthorized (outside) 
stations from accessing your machine to relay messages to a G3 fax machine via PSTN. This password should be 
given out to authorized people only.
4. Relay Address (Auto Dialer)
The syntax of Relay Station Address is: (Relay XMT Password + @ + Host Name + Domain Name) 
5. Manager’s Email Address (User’s Parameter)
Register the Department Manager’s Email Address for supervision and cost control purposes. Once registered, the 
machine will send an email notification to this email address for each Relayed XMT Request received from a 
remote station. The following information is sent.
 
(From : The email address of the originating station.) 
(To      : The telephone number of the destination G3 fax machine.)
6. Domain Names (User’s Parameter) (See note 4)
Register up to 10 Domain Names (up to 30 characters) that your machine will accept Relayed Transmission. 
Requests to relay a message to another G3 fax machine via PSTN.
Ex: Registered Domain Names
(01): panasonic.co.jp 
(02): abc.ifax.com 
(03): panasonic.com
In the example above, the Relayed XMT Request will be accepted only from the email addresses that include the 
Domain Name of panasonic.co.jp, abc.ifax.com or panasonic.com.
NOTE3. This should be different that your machines Email Address used to receive regular email or 
Internet Fax as your machines Email Address is always included in the header of all email 
messages sent. So, anyone receiving an Internet Fax from the machine will know easily the 
Relay XMT Password if it is the same as the Email Address.
4. If all the Domain Names are left blank, the Internet Fax will accept Relayed XMT Requests 
from any domain.

Advanced Internet Fax 
Features
A TIFF Converter software is used on your PC to convert document(s) into a TIFF file format, which allows the 
Internet Fax to receive the document as an attachment to an email. When you are sending a detailed graphic 
document(s) to a Panasonic Internet Fax, you can specify 600 dpi resolution for better clarity.
Internet Fax Mailer software is an add-in program for the TIFF Converter that links the email client for MAPI to the 
TIFF converter for the Internet Fax.
Before sending image as email from the application to the Internet Fax, you have to convert the file into the format that 
the Internet Fax is allowed to receive and print as an email using the TIFF file creation function. You also have to send 
that file to the Internet Fax as an attached document.
Internet Fax Mailer, allows you to create TIFF files automatically by pressing one button form the TIFF Converter for 
the Internet Fax.
You can download the Panasonics TIFF Converter, Internet Fax Mailer software and their respective Users Guides 
from any of the following URL address:
http://panasonic.co.jp/pcc/en/
To simplify the Relay Transmission operation, Panasonic has an Optional Panasonic Fax Gateway software.

QPrintouts and Reports
When you use Relayed Transmission, relay station will send the following two reports to help you check and keep track 
of your faxes.
1.Relay XMT Report (COMM. JOURNAL) 
When the relay station finishes transmitting to the End Receiving Station, it will send a Comm. Journal to you when 
the Fax Parameter No. 143 is set to Always or Inc. Only, this tells you whether the transmission was 
successful or not.
2.Transmission Journal 
When the Relay Station receives instructions for a relayed transmission, a notification is emailed to the registered 
manager (see Setting Up Your machine as an Internet Relay Station on page 
63).
