Fax Overview
There are several Fax services which can be installed or enabled on your device. These are as follows:
Fax
If Fax is installed, your device is connected
directly to a telephone line and therefore gives
you direct control over your fax transmissions.
This type of fax travels over normal telephone
lines and will therefore be charged at telephone
rates.
Using Fax enables you to scan your documents
and send them to most types of fax machines
that are connected to the telephone network.
Received faxes can be setup to print at the
device automatically, held in the job list until a secure passcode is entered or sent to an E-mail address
using the Fax Forward feature. Refer to Receiving a Fax on page 116 for further information.
The standard Fax option has the ability to connect to one telephone. An Extended Fax option is also
available which utilizes two telephone lines. Using two telephone lines provides the capability to
simultaneously send to 2 destinations, receive from 2 destinations, or send and receive.
For instructions on using the Fax service features, refer to Fax on page 72.
Note: If Fax and Server Fax are installed on your device, only one of these services can be active at
a time. Each service remains on the device, but one is enabled and one is disabled.
Server Fax
Server Fax scans your documents and sends
them to any type of fax machine that is
connected to a telephone network. Your images
are sent from your device to a Third Party fax
server, which relays them over the telephone
network to the fax number of your choice.
This means that your fax transmissions are
controlled by the server, which may limit your
faxing options. For example, the server may be
set-up to collect and send all faxes at off peak
times.
For instructions on using the Server Fax service features, refer to Server Fax on page 92.
Note: If Fax and Server Fax are installed on your device, only one of these services can be active at
a time. Each service remains on the device, but one is enabled and one is disabled.
