Setting up the fax function using fax server

Configure the printer for you to send and receive fax messages using the fax server.
  • This feature lets you send fax messages to a fax service provider that supports email receiving.
  • This feature supports outgoing fax messages only. To support fax receive, make sure that you have a device‑based fax, such as analog fax, etherFAX, or Fax over IP (FoIP), configured in your printer.
  1. Open a web browser, and then type the printer IP address in the address field.
    • You can find the IP address at the top of the printer display.
    • Make sure that the printer and computer are connected to the same network.
