F-Code Communications 4-23
F-Code Communications
This function performs communications using a sub-address or password conforming to
ITU-T (International Telecommunication Union) standards. By creating F-code boxes for
which a sub-address or password has been registered, you can perform communications
regardless of the manufacturer or machine type. Utilizing sub-addresses and passwords
enables you to use the following functions.
Secure F-code box
communications:
When the other party has set a secure F-code box, secure F-code
communications can be performed by specifying the sub-address and the
password (if necessary) for that box. Unless the receiver of the security box
communication enters a specific I.D. code, the received document cannot
be printed out, which is essential for transmitting documents that require
confidentiality.
F-code bulletin box
communications:
When the other party has set an F-code bulletin box, documents can be
transmitted to the bulletin box. The stored documents in the bulletin box can
be retrieved (with F-code polling) by specifying the sub-address of that box. A
password can be specified, as necessary.
Registering F-Code Boxes
The following items can be registered for each box.
