Received faxes can be automatically forwarded to a specified E-mail address. This function can be used to forward 
received faxes directly to an e-mail address without printing the faxes.

To configure inbound routing settings, click [Application Settings] and then [Inbound Routing Settings] in the Web page 
menu. (Administrator rights are required.)

• The format of the forwarded file is TIFF-F.

• This function cannot be used for faxes received by confidential reception.

Forwarding

This chapter explains how to perform F-code communication operations. F-code communication is possible with 
machines of other manufacturers that also support F-code communication.

Exchange of confidential documents (confidential communication), retrieval (polling) and distribution (polling memory) of 
information, distribution of information to multiple destinations (relay broadcast transmission) are possible with other 
machines that support F-code communication.
An F-code* is specified in each communication, enabling a higher level of security.
* F-code is a communication function based on the G3 standard of the ITU-T.

A fax that is transmitted with an F-code is received to the memory box in the receiving machine specified by the F-code 
(sub-address and passcode). If the F-code sent by the transmitting machine does not match the F-code in the receiving 
machine, reception will not take place.

The products of other manufacturers may use different terms for "sub-address" and "passcode". If you need to contact 
the operator of another machine regarding sub-addresses and passcodes, refer to the terms in the table below which 
are used by the ITU-T.

The ITU-T is a United Nations organization that establishes communications standards. It is a department of the International 
Telecommunication Union (ITU), which coordinates global telecommunications networks and services.

An F-code consists of a sub-address and passcode, and cannot be longer than 20 digits.

Before the F-code communication function can be used, special memory boxes must be created using "F-Code Memory 
Box" in the system settings for fax.
A box name and F-code (sub-address and passcode) are programmed in each box, and an F-code communication 
function is assigned to each box.
After you have created a memory box, inform the other party of the sub-address and passcode of the box.

To use the following F-code communication functions, F-code memory boxes must be created in your machine.

F-code confidential reception, F-code polling memory, F-code relay broadcast transmission 

To use the following F-code communication functions, F-code memory boxes must be created in the other machine.

F-code confidential transmission, F-code polling reception, F-code relay request transmission.

System Settings for Fax: F-Code Memory Box
This is used to configure memory boxes for F-code communication.

• Up to 100 memory boxes can be created.

• The memory box name cannot be longer than 18 characters, and the sub-address and passcode cannot be longer than 20 

digits.

• Memory box name
• Sub-address
• Passcode
• End receiving machines (only in an F-code relay 

broadcast memory box)

• Print PIN (only for F-code confidential reception)

When performing an F-code operation, the F-code (sub-address and passcode) is appended to the fax number that is 
dialled. Check the F-code (sub-address and passcode) programmed in the memory box in the other machine before you 
perform an F-code transmission. It is convenient to store an F-code together with the fax number in a one-touch key or 
group key. 

When the following F-code functions are used, your machine dials the other machine.

F-code confidential transmission, F-code polling reception,  F-code relay request transmission

When the following F-code functions are used, the other machine dials your machine.

F-code confidential reception, F-code polling memory, F-code relay broadcast transmission 

• If the destination machine does not have a passcode configured in the F-code, do not enter a passcode when dialling that 

machine.

• F-code communication cannot be performed when using the speaker or performing manual transmission.

This is used to store and edit one-touch keys and group keys.
