[Original Size] on the [Layout Adjustment] screen
When [TIFF-S] is selected for [iFax Profile] on the [Transmission Options] screen,
iFax is sent in A4 even if a size larger than A4 is specified.
For information on iFax profiles, refer to "iFax Profile (Specifying iFax Profiles)" (P.69).
iFax Profiles
z
When specifying an iFax profile
The iFax profile that can be processed varies depending on the machine that the
recipient uses. When specifying an iFax profile, confirm if it can be processed by the
recipient's machine.
z
When an iFax profile not supported by the recipient's machine is specified
If the iFax profile you specified is not supported by the recipient's machine, the image
you sent cannot be displayed or printed on the recipient's machine. Before using an
iFax profile, confirm if it can be processed by both your machine and the recipient's
machine.
z
TIFF files and iFax profiles that can be processed upon iFax reception
- TIFF file format: TIFF-FX (RFC2301)
- iFax profile: TIFF-S, TIFF-F, TIFF-J, TIFF-C
If receiving an unsupported iFax profile, the machine may not be able to print the file.
If receiving a TIFF-C profile, the machine prints in black and white.
z
Transmission conditions for broadcast transmission
- When sending a document via a broadcast transmission, it can be sent to both
iFax and regular fax addresses at the same time. To iFax addresses, the
document will be sent by e-mail, and to regular fax addresses, the document will
be sent by fax.
- When the transmission conditions are different for each address, set all addresses
to the following settings.
•Transmission mode: G3 Auto
•iFax profile :
TIFF-S
•Read/send status:
None
E-mail Forwarding
If the fax you received is a JBIG-compressed image, and if the iFax profile of the
forwarding destination is set to TIFF-F, you can convert the image into MH format when
forwarding. When the iFax profile is TIFF-S, the data is forwarded with its size and
resolution unchanged.
Fax Gateway Feature
This feature can only be used when the e-mail receiving protocol is SMTP on the iFax-
compatible machine that faxes are sent to.
If an e-mail was sent by converting it into fax, and if it was not delivered successfully to
the recipient, the e-mail that was received originally will be deleted.
For more information on the fax gateway feature, refer to "Sending an iFax to normal fax machines via a
relay station" (P.38).
Restrictions on Paper Selections upon IFax Reception
The machine determines whether a TIFF file attached to an e-mail complies with the
content type defined in RFC2301 and RFC3250. If the content type is compliant with
RFC2301 and RFC3250, the machine selects an appropriate paper to render the file
image as a fax-received image.
