(Ex: smtp.example.net or 192.0.0.1) If you are using the DNS name of the SMTP E-mail server, you must use the FQDN (Full Qualified Domain Name) such as smtp.example.net
       
   2. SMTP Port: Specify the destination port number of the SMTP server that you will connect to.

      • None: Does not authenticate to the SMTP Server.
         
      • SMTP-AUTH: Uses the method which is SMTP Authentication. If this method is used, it is necessary to set the SMTP account details correctly.

   6. Printer E-mail Address: Enter the e-mail address of the printer. If an administrator address has not been correctly entered, the Notification Mail will be sent to the printer. If you do not set a printer e-mail address, the Notification Mail is not sent to the administrator.
       
   7. POP3 Server Address: This field determines the host name or IP address of the POP3 server (incoming e-mail server). (Ex: pop.example.net -or- 192.0.0.1)
      If you are using the DNS name of the POP3 E-mail server you must use the FQDN (Fully Qualified Domain Name) such as pop.example.net.
       
   8. POP3 Port: Specify the destination port number of the POP3 server that you will connect to.
       
   9. Mailbox Name/Password: Specify a mailbox name and password on the POP3 server where the Internet print jobs are to be retrieved. To set for no password, enter a single space

   11. POP3 over SSL/TLS: You can choose the encryption method between the machine and the POP3 server. You may check or uncheck Verify Server Certificate, which verifies the certificate between the machine and the POP3 server.
        
   12. Segmented Message Timeout: If a print job is separated into multiple email messages using the segmented message feature of the print server, this value indicates how long the print server will wait for all of the segments of the message to arrive.
