Send fax using PaperCut™ MF
If you are using a printer or multifunction device that has been set up with the PaperCut™ MF software, you can connect your GoFax® account to send faxes using the 'PaperCut™ Scan to Fax' function.
There are 2 options for connecting PaperCut™ MF software to your GoFax Account:
- Using the SMTP connector, or
- Using the API based connector
Using the SMTP connector
The PaperCut™ & GoFax SMTP connector allows you to fax a document you have scanned using your multifunction device and send it as an email via GoFax. The scanned document is submitted via email using your email service providers SMTP gateway to GoFax and processed as a fax. To configure:

- Within PaperCut™ MF, under the Fax Settings:
- Add your SMTP server details to enable email sending
- Under the 'Email suffix', enter @send.gofax.com.au
- Your PaperCut™ MF will now use the fax number you enter and send the documents (as an email) to GoFax. GoFax will convert and send these documents as a fax via your GoFax account.
