Fax tips

Use these tips to maximize your Fax efficiency.
You can print a fax from a Fax Overflow mailbox at another fax machine
If a fax machine for a Fax Overflow mailbox is out of order for an extended time, you can print the
stored fax messages on another fax machine connected to the system. To print the fax messages,
change the extension number of the Fax Overflow mailbox to the extension of a working fax
machine. After you print the stored fax messages, change the extension number back to that of the
original fax machine so you do not miss any incoming fax messages.
For information about setting the extension number of a Fax Overflow mailbox, refer to
"Changing a Fax Overflow mailbox" on page
You can increase subscriber mailbox storage space for fax messages
Subscriber mailboxes store fax messages and voice messages in the same message space. The
amount of space available is determined by the mailbox Class of Service. If a subscriber expects
several fax messages, you can change the mailbox Class of Service to allow more message space.
You can use Off-premise Message Notification to notify you of fax machine problems
If a fax message goes to the Fax Overflow mailbox and the retry limit is reached, the message is
sent to the General Delivery mailbox. You can open the General Delivery mailbox and forward the
fax messages to another fax machine connected to the system. Check the General Delivery
mailbox on a regular basis. Off-premise Message Notification can be set up to notify you when a
message is received in the General Delivery mailbox. For more information about setting up
Off-premise Message Notification and the General Delivery mailbox, refer to the CallPilot
Manager Set Up and Operation Guide.
