If you’re looking for an easy way to send a fax from your printer, you’ve come to the right place. Before you start, make sure you have all the necessary information. You’ll need a fax number, a SMTP-AUTH account name and password, and a cover page.
Dial the fax number
When you want to send a fax from your printer, you must first dial the fax number. Then, you must prepare a document and scan it with your printer. Once you have the fax ready to send, you can place it into the feeder. Your fax machine will then automatically send the fax.
There are several different ways to send a fax from your printer. You can do this through email, an online service, or by using your own fax machine.
Using a fax machine allows you to send a fax from anywhere. But you must understand how the fax system works to know how to use it properly. If you don’t follow the instructions, the fax will fail. This will result in a very unpleasant death-keen sound.

Include a cover page
When sending a fax from your printer, you need to include a cover page. This will allow the recipient to know the purpose of the fax and how to go about interacting with it. It will also let you verify if your recipient has received all the pages you sent.
There are several types of fax cover sheets. Some are more professional and include additional information. These can include the number of pages, the date the fax was sent and the recipient’s name. You may also consider using a confidentiality statement on a separate page.
The number of pages is important because it can help you determine which parts of your document will be seen by your receiver. Including a reference number can help your recipient easily find the part of the document they need.
Include SMTP-AUTH Account Name and Password
When sending a fax using the Lexmark MB2236adw, you should consider including SMTP-AUTH Account Name and Password. The SMTP-AUTH feature makes it easy to authenticate the printer, and to send and receive faxes over a local network or the internet.
In addition, the SMTP-AUTH feature also helps to protect your e-mail from spam. It is used by both the SMTP server and by your printer to verify your password. This feature is especially useful if you have a small business, as it is easier to use a fax machine that does not have the luxuries of a full-blown e-mail system.
To configure the SMTP-AUTH feature, you first need to set up an SMTP server. You can do this by searching the Internet for SMTP servers. If you are an admin, you may be able to configure this function for yourself.

Include SMTP over SSL/TLS
If you’re trying to send a fax from your printer, you may need to include SMTP over SSL/TLS. This is an option that can protect sensitive information from being read by unscrupulous recipients.
Several of the most popular service providers require the use of SMTP over SSL/TLS. Below are the SMTP settings that you’ll need to use.
The first step is to verify that the server’s certificate is valid. To do this, you’ll need to set up the TLS server certificate verification on the Remote UI.
Next, you’ll need to enter a valid email address. This address appears in the outgoing email.
Once you have a valid email address, you can begin testing your SMTP settings. In the “Send Test Email” box, enter the address that you’d like to send your test email to. After clicking Send Test Email, you’ll see a test message being sent.
Recipient’s fax device must support color transmission
To send a color fax, you’ll need the recipient’s fax machine. If they have a black and white fax machine, you’ll need to attach a cover page to the fax. You’ll also need to dial their fax number.
You can use a fax-sending app on your phone or PC. You can also send a fax via email. Using a fax-sending service can be a good idea if you’re sending a lot of faxes.
Fax-sending services can be combined with other functions like voice mail, an Internet connection, or a telephone line. The best ones will allow you to select recipients, schedule a fax, and send a fax to more than one person. In addition to a phone number, you can include a name and other contact information.
