This section describes the user tools in the File Transfer menu under System Settings.

You can specify the following settings on Type 1, 2 and 3 machines.

You can specify the following settings on Type 4 and 5 machines.

SMTP Server

Specify the SMTP server name.

If DNS is in use, enter the host name.

If DNS is not in use, enter the SMTP server IPv4 address.

Default for "Port No.": [25]

Default for "Use Secure Connection (SSL)": [Off]

Enter the server name up to 127 characters. Spaces cannot be entered.

Enter the port number between 1 and 65535 using the number keys, and then press the [Hash] key.

The SMTP server shares the same port number with the Direct SMTP server.

If you set SSL to [On], the port number automatically changes to "465".

SMTP Authentication

Specify SMTP authentication (PLAIN, LOGIN, CRAMMD5, DIGEST-MD5). When sending e-mail to an SMTP server, you can enhance the SMTP server security level using authentication that requires entering the user name and password.

If the SMTP server requires authentication, set [SMTP Authentication] to [On], and then specify the user name, password, and encryption.

Default: [Off]

  • User Name

    Enter the user name up to 191 characters.

    Spaces cannot be entered. Depending on the SMTP server type, "realm" must be specified. Add "@" after the user name, as in "user name@realm".

    Enter the e-mail address up to 128 characters.

  • Password

    Enter the password up to 128 characters.

    Spaces cannot be entered.

  • Encryption

    Select Encryption as follows:

    [Auto]

    Use if the authentication method is PLAIN, LOGIN, CRAM-MD5, or DIGEST-MD5.

    [On]

    Use if the authentication method is CRAMMD5 or DIGEST-MD5.

    [Off]

    Use if the authentication method is PLAIN or LOGIN.

POP before SMTP

Specify POP authentication (POP before SMTP).

When sending e-mail to an SMTP server, you can enhance the SMTP server security level by connecting to the POP server for authentication.

Default: [Off]

If you set POP before SMTP to [On], specify the waiting time after authentication, user name, e-mail address, and password.

  • Wait Time after Authent.

To enable POP server authentication before sending e-mail via the SMTP server, set [POP before SMTP] to [On]. E-mail is sent to the SMTP server after the time specified for [Wait Time after Authent.] has elapsed.

If you select [On], enter the server name in [POP3 / IMAP4 Settings]. Also, check the POP3 port number in [Email Communication Port].

Reception Protocol

Specify the Reception Protocol for receiving e-mail.

    The password is encrypted.

    [Off]

    The password is not encrypted.

    Default: [Auto]

Administrator's Email Address

Specify the administrator's e-mail address up to 128 characters.

On e-mailed scanned documents, if the sender is not specified, this appears as the sender's address.
