Fax

The Fax feature may not be available on your machine, depending on your configuration.
There are two types of Fax service - Embedded Fax and Server Fax. Although both fax
services can be installed, only one fax service can be enabled at a time.
Your System Administrator will set up the default fax service. This chapter contains
information about the options available within both fax services.
NOTE: Embedded Fax is the default service when both fax services are installed.
Embedded Fax
Once enabled on your machine, you will be able to transmit and receive hard copy fax jobs
over the telephone network directly to and from another fax machine. Your images are sent
from your machine directly to the fax number entered. This type of fax travels over normal
telephone lines and will therefore be charged at telephone rates.

LAN Fax

LAN (Local Area Network) Fax enables you to send documents to fax machines directly from
your computer. Once enabled, you can select the Fax option from your printer driver.
The LAN fax option requires the Embedded Fax Kit to be fitted to the machine.

Server Fax

Once enabled on your machine, you will be able to transmit and receive hard copy faxes
without a dedicated telephone line on the machine. Your images are sent from your
machine, via your network, to a fax server which forwards them on to the fax number you
entered.
Access to the Fax features is gained using the Services Home button on the control panel
and Fax to display the Fax feature tabs.
Feature Differences
Embedded Fax offers more features than Server Fax. The table below identifies which
features are present for each fax service.
