Lexmark Multifunction Laser Fax Manual

Fax guide
The fax function lets you scan items and fax them to one or more recipients. You can send a fax from the printer by typing the
fax number, using a shortcut number, or using the address book.
Note: To place a one-second dialing pause within a fax number, press
The dial pause appears as a comma in the "Fax to" box. Use this feature if you need to dial an outside line first.

Sending a fax using the computer

Faxing from a computer lets you send electronic documents without leaving your desk. This gives you the flexibility of faxing
documents directly from software programs.
Note: In order to perform this function from your computer, you must use the PostScript printer driver for your printer.
1
From your software program, click File > Print.
2
From the Print window, select your printer, and then click Properties > Other Options > Fax > OK > OK.
3
On the Fax screen, enter the name and number of the fax recipient.
4
Click Send.

Using fax shortcuts

Fax shortcuts are just like the speed dial numbers on a telephone or fax machine. You can assign shortcut numbers when
creating permanent fax destinations. Permanent fax destinations or speed dial numbers are created in the Manage Shortcuts
link located under Settings on the Embedded Web Server. A shortcut number (1–99999) can contain a single recipient or
multiple recipients. By creating a group fax shortcut with a shortcut number, you can quickly and easily fax broadcast
information to an entire group.
