Sending/Receiving a PC Fax

APC with a serial, USB, or phone (RJ11) connection to the SX5T can send and receive faxes using the SX5T. Your account with your service provider must support circuit switched data transfer for the SX5T’s PC fax function to work.

Set Your Computer’s Port and Modem Speeds for PC Fax

To send or receive faxes, you need to set the port and modem speeds your computer uses for the SX5T to 19200 bps. See Windows XP/2000 Setup (page 18) or Windows 98 Setup (page 24) for details.
