Scan to e-mail

The MFP allows you to deliver your scanned document to e-mail addresses on the

network. The document is first scanned and converted to a standard PDF, JPEG or

TIFF file format and then transmitted to remote recipients simultaneously as an

e-mail attachment.

When you send an e-mail to someone using this MFP, it uses Simple Mail Transfer

Protocol (SMTP) to transfer your outgoing e-mails to your SMTP mail server, and then

sends these e-mails to your recipients through the internet.

Notes

1. DHCP server: With DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration

Protocol), a host can automatically be given a unique IP

address each time it connects to a network-making IP

address management an easier task for network

administrators. If the DHCP server is available from your

network, you do not need to enter TCP/IP, subnet mask,

gateway, and DNS information. Instead, this information will

be automatically given for the MFP.

2. IP Address: An IP (Internet Protocol) address uniquely

identifies a host connection to an IP network. System

administrator or network designer assigns the IP address.

The IP address consists of two parts, one identifying the

network and the one identifying your node. The IP address is

usually written as four numbers separated by periods. Each

number can be zero to 255. For example, 10.1.30.186 could

be an IP address.

3. SMTP: (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) is the main

communication protocol used to send and receive e-mail on

the Internet.

4. DNS: (Domain Name System). The DNS server identifies

hosts via names instead of IP addresses. If the DNS server is

available on your network, you can enter the domain name

instead of digits for your SMTP or POP3 servers, such as

Pegasus.com.tw instead of 120.3.2.23.

5. POP3: POP3 is the latest Post Office Protocol 3, this is a

service that stores and serves e-mails for various client

machines that are not connected to the Internet 24 hours a

day. E-mails are held in POP3 until you log on.
