Checking for New Faxes (Windows)

By setting up a computer to save faxes received by the printer, you can check the processing status of received faxes,
and whether or not there are any new faxes using the fax icon on the Windows task bar. By setting up the computer
to display a notification when new faxes are received, a notification screen pops up near the Windows system tray,
and you can check the new faxes.
Note:
❏ Received fax data saved to the computer is removed from the printer's memory.
❏ You need Adobe Reader to view the received faxes because they are saved as PDF files.
Using the Fax Icon on the Task Bar (Windows)
You can check for new faxes and the operation status by using the fax icon displayed on the Windows taskbar.
