imageRUNNER ADVANCE 6255 Trouble with EFax setup

[NCbanjopicker]

I'm trying set up Efax on this Canon Imagerunner Advance 6255 copier and I'm not having much luck. Our phone/fax line is down and we don't know when it will be repaired. I read that the printer is capable of using I-Fax so figured since we already have Efax it might work. I changed the fax number in the machine to the efax number. It is already set up for scan to email and that works. I tried a couple different ways to send an efax, using just the efax phone number and it just beeps and says specify destinations? So I tried adding @efaxsend.com to the fax number same thing? I'm missing something somewhere just cant figure it out.

Already talked to our dealer they didn't have an answer or weren't sure exactly how to set it up.

Greetings,

Find another dealer.  The set up for iFAX is standard.

Greetings,

Having supported a countless number of brands for years, I can tell you that all of them use a similar configuration.  This technology is standard across the industry .  Canon is no different that other manufacturers
