The Kyocera 870LSHW002 is an Internet fax kit for TASKalfa series multifunction printers. It enables the use of fax functions over the Internet, eliminating the need for traditional telephone line and fax modem infrastructure. The kit is specifically designed for integration into existing printing systems to expand communication capabilities without requiring additional hardware such as fax modems or telephone connections.

Applications
This Internet fax kit is intended for businesses and organisations seeking paperless and efficient fax communication over digital networks. It is particularly suitable for environments where connecting printers to an Internet fax service is necessary to send and receive documents over the network. Integration is direct into the printer control, allowing users to access fax functions via the device’s operating interface.

Functions and equipment in detail
The kit extends the functionality of compatible TASKalfa models by enabling the sending and receiving of faxes over the Internet. Without this system, the Internet fax kit cannot operate. Integration is achieved via the printer’s interface, with control managed through the integrated user interface. Users can send faxes directly from the printer interface without requiring additional software or external devices.

Technology explained simply
The Internet fax kit uses the printer’s existing network connection to transmit faxes over the Internet. The document is digitised, encrypted, and sent over the network to the recipient. The technology is based on standardised protocols for digital fax transmission. The connection is made via the local network or an Internet connection, depending on the printer’s configuration. User interaction occurs through the printer’s operating interface, where fax functions appear as additional options in the menu.

Compatibility and accessories
The kit is designed for a range of TASKalfa models, including TASKalfa 300i, TASKalfa 3501i, TASKalfa 4501i, TASKalfa 5501i, TASKalfa 6500i, TASKalfa 8000i, TASKalfa 2550ci, TASKalfa 3051ci, TASKalfa 3551ci, TASKalfa 4551ci, TASKalfa 5551ci, TASKalfa 6550ci, and TASKalfa 7550ci.

Installation and mounting
Installation involves integrating the kit into the printer, with the exact procedure described in the operating manual of the respective TASKalfa model. Mounting typically requires no special tools, as the kit is designed for direct installation into the printer control. Configuration is performed via the device’s operating interface, where settings for the Internet fax system must be adjusted. The detailed installation instructions are part of the printer’s documentation.

Operational advantages
Using the Internet fax kit enables cost-efficient and reliable fax communication without the need for a telephone line. Faxes are transmitted over the existing network, reducing dependency on analogue telephone lines. Integration into the printer control allows intuitive operation, and documents can be sent directly from the device. This function is particularly advantageous in environments where a digital communication infrastructure is already in place and fax functions are to be used over the network.
