OKI 1145 MFP User Manual

This function is used to convert an E-mail, received at this equipment as a relay station, into a Fax data 
and forward it to another Fax machine through a public telephone line.
It is useful when you want to reduce communication cost by using both the Internet and public telephone 
lines. For example, when you want to send a document out of your city or overseas, the document can be 
sent as an E-mail to this equipment through the Internet, and then it will be forwarded to a target Fax 
machine as a Fax data through a public telephone line.
