PC Fax Function (Requires the FO-LN1 Option)

The PC-Fax function allows you to fax documents directly from your computer. This saves you the trouble of printing a document and then faxing it from the machine.

Important: The PC-Fax function can only be used to send faxes. It cannot be used to receive faxes to your computer.

To use the PC Fax function,

♦The FO-LN1 network interface kit must be installed in the machine. (This kit is also used for the network scanner option and printer option explained in the following chapters.)

♦The PC-Fax driver must be installed in your computer. The PC-Fax driver is installed from the CD-ROM in the FO-LN1 network interface kit.

The Status Monitor can also be installed to monitor the status of faxes sent from your computer using the PC-Fax driver. The Status Monitor notifies you when transmission is completed and alerts you if an error occurs.

System requirements

To use the PC-Fax driver, you must have one of the following versions of Windows:

Windows 98/ME/NT 4.0/2000/XP

Installing the PC-Fax driver in your computer

To install the PC-Fax driver in your computer, see the installation guide in the CD-ROM in the FO-LN1 network interface kit. The installation guide (“Installation Guide.pdf”) is located in the PC-FAX folder of the CD-ROM.
