Basic Operation for Sending Faxes from a Computer

You can select a destination from the LAN-Fax address book or enter a fax number manually. You can send faxes to up to 100 destinations at once.

The procedure in this section is an example based on Windows 7.

Before sending a fax, the machine stores all the fax data in memory. If the machine's memory becomes full while storing this data, the fax transmission will be canceled. If this happens, lower the resolution or reduce the number of pages and try again.

1.Open the file you want to send.

2.On the [File] menu, click [Print...].

3.Select the LAN-Fax driver as the printer, and then click [Print].

4.Specify a destination.

To specify a destination from the LAN-Fax address book: Select a destination from [User List:], and then click [Add to List]. Repeat this step to add more destinations.

To enter a fax number directly:

Click the [Specify Destination] tab, and enter a fax number (up to 40 digits) in [Fax Number:], and then click [Add to List].

Repeat this step to add more destinations.

5.To attach a cover sheet, click [Edit Cover Sheet] on the [Specify Destination] tab, and then select the [Attach a Cover Sheet] check box.
