FAXING A DOCUMENT FROM A COMPUTER (PC-FAX)

If a computer is connected to the machine and the PC-FAX driver installed in the computer, a document created on the computer can be sent directly to a fax machine. There is no need to print the document and then scan it on the machine.

• This function can only be used for transmission. Faxes sent to the machine cannot be received by the

Note computer.

After sending a fax from your computer, check with the recipient to see if the fax was received. You can also check the result of transmission on a Activity report. (p.85)

Regardless of the fax settings, this function only rotates 8-1/2" x 11" (A4) length (11" x 17" (A3) width) originals before transmission.

Originals less than 8-1/2" x 11" (A4) width are transmitted as 8-1/2" x 11" (A4) width documents.
