How to use PC-FAX 6
PC-FAX Receive
(Windows
®
only) 6
If you turn on the PC-FAX Receive feature
your MFC will store received faxes in memory
and send them to your computer
automatically. You can then use your
computer to view and store these faxes.
Even if you turn off your computer (at night or on
the weekend, for example), your MFC will
receive and store your faxes in its memory. The
number of received faxes that are stored in the
memory will appear on the Touchscreen.
When you start your computer and the PC-
FAX Receiving software runs, your MFC
transfers your faxes to your computer
automatically.
To transfer the received faxes you must have
the PC-FAX Receiving software running on
your PC.
Follow the instructions for the operating
system you are using.
