6. Fax via Computer

This section explains how to use this machine's facsimile function from a computer via a network.

Sending Fax Documents from Computers

You can send a document created with a Windows application from a computer connected to the machine to another fax machine.

Connect computers to the machine via parallel port, LAN, IEEE 802.11b (wire- less LAN), IEEE 1394 (IPv4 over 1394), or USB 2.0.

To send a fax, simply select [Print] from the Windows application, then select LAN-Fax as the printer, and then specify a destination. LAN-Fax enables pa- perless faxing from your computer to the other destinations.

In addition to sending faxes, the LAN-Fax Driver allows this machine to be used for printing out documents prepared on a computer for proof checking.

To use the LAN-Fax Driver, connect this machine to a LAN and make the nec- essary network settings, and then install the LAN-Fax Driver and the related utilities on your computer.
