Before Sending a Fax to the Fax Server

Related Models:MFC‑L2759DW

To send a document to the fax server, the correct syntax for that server must be used. The destination fax number must be sent with a prefix and a suffix that match the parameters used by the fax server. In most cases, the syntax for the prefix is “fax=” and the syntax for the suffix would be the domain name of the fax server email gateway. The suffix must also include the “@” symbol at the beginning of the suffix. The prefix and the suffix information must be stored in the machine before you can use the Fax to server function. Destination fax numbers can be saved in the address book or entered using the dial pad (up to 40-digit numbers). For example: if you wanted to send a document to a destination fax number of 123-555-0001, use the following syntax:

Your fax server application must support an email gateway.
