Configuring the Printer with the Device Pages 33
Using Email Command and Response
When outgoing and incoming mail are configured, you can send an e-mail
message to the printer requesting a configuration page or a supplies
status page, and the printer will respond with an e-mail message. You can
use this capability to solve a problem or check the status of printer
consumables.
Note
For step-by-step instructions on setting up the printer to receive an
incoming e-mail message and respond with an outgoing e-mail message,
see page 52.
