Server Fax

Server Fax is a standard feature that can be enabled on your device. If enabled, it can be accessed by

selecting the Services Home button then the Server Fax option. 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.

This section contains instructions to configure a fax filing location (repository) on your server. The fax

server retrieves the documents from the filing location and transmits them via the telephone network.

The fax server manages the fax transfer and has the ability to send confirmation reports which are

printed at the device.

Server Fax Authentication and Authorization

Authentication (Service Access Control) can be enabled on the device to prevent unauthorized access

to the network options. If Authentication is enabled a user will be prompted to enter a user name and

password, before they can access the Fax feature. For a full description of the Authentication feature

refer toAuthentication on page 121. Authentication can be configured after Server Fax has been

installed.

Information Checklist

Before starting the procedure, please ensure the following items are available or have been performed:

• Ensure the device is fully functioning on the network prior to enabling Server Fax.

• Ensure that the TCP/IP and HTTP are configured on the device as per Enable TCP/IP and HTTP at

the Device on page 11.

This is required to access the device's Internet Services web pages, which can be used to configure

E-mail settings from a network connected workstation's web browser.

For instructions on how to configure TCP/IP and HTTP, refer to Configure Network connectivity

Protocols with Internet Services on page 16.

• Install and configure the Xerox certified fax server solution on your network. Refer to the

manufacturer's documentation contained with the server fax solution for instructions to complete

this task.

• If the server fax solution uses the TCP/IP protocol to communicate, it is recommended that the

server be assigned a static IP address. However, dynamic IP Addressing may be used provided

DNS settings are fully configured and the DHCP server has been configured with sufficient lease
