Changing the Line Port

Select a line port or protocol to be used for standard fax or IP-Fax transmission.

When the extra G3 interface unit is installed, you can connect to a maximum of three ports.

G3

G3 is selected after power up or when the machine is reset. If you install the extra G3 interface unit, you can select [G3-1], [G3-2], [G3-3], or [G3 Auto] depending on the number of the installed unit.

When sending an IP-Fax, select either [SIP] or [H.323] as the protocol.

Ask your administrator whether you should select [SIP] or [H.323] as the protocol.

If you use the Address Book to specify a destination, the line settings configured for each destination in the Address Book are applied.

Use this procedure to specify the line manually when you enter a destination directly.
