Forwarding Settings to Receive Faxes with Specific Conditions

You can make forwarding settings to receive faxes from a specified sender or at a specified time.

When multiple conditions (Conditional Save/Forward) are set, they are referenced in the order of the items, and the Conditional Save/Forward that matches first is executed.

You can make forwarding settings to a destination, an email address, a shared folder, your cloud account or another fax machine from a specified sender or at a specified time.

Note:

  • If you want to make settings to forward received faxes, first add the forwarding destinations to the contacts list or the cloud destination list. See the table below for which list to register.
