With Internet Fax (I-Fax), you can send and receive fax documents using the Internet as the transport
mechanism. Documents are transmitted in email messages as attached TIFF-F files. Your computer can send
and receive documents as long as it has an application that can generate and view TIFF-F files. You can use any
TIFF-F viewer application. Documents sent via the machine will be converted into a TIFF
‑
F format automatically.
If you want to send and receive messages to and from your machine, your computer's email application must
support Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions (MIME).
