MultiPASS Service (Windows NT only)
The MultiPASS Service (MPService) enables and controls all the communication between
your computer and the MultiPASS. MPService must be running for jobs to be processed
with the Desktop Manager and the MultiPASS (such as receiving faxes in the Desktop
Manager, scheduling faxes, scanning, and printing).
MPService starts automatically when you start your computer, even if you have not yet
logged into Windows. If you log off Windows and leave the computer on, MPService
continues to run, to receive and send any faxes to and from the Desktop Manager.
MultiPASS Status Monitor
The MultiPASS Status Monitor controls and tracks the activity occurring through the bi-
directional parallel port to which the MultiPASS is connected. The Status Monitor must be
running to enable the MultiPASS system to function successfully. The Status Monitor
displays status messages about the current activity with your MultiPASS system. With the
installation of the software, the Status Monitor is set up to automatically start when you
start Windows.
Send Fax Manager
The Send Fax Manager displays an ordered queue of fax jobs and their status.
MultiPASS Toolbar
The MultiPASS Toolbar enables you to scan an image from the Windows desktop without
opening an imaging application (such as Photoshop®) or the Desktop Manager. The
scanned image is delivered directly to a destination, such as a fax or to the desired
application (such as your e-mail application or a graphic application).
