About Citrix MetaFrame The Citrix MetaFrame add-on package is installed after your NT or 2000 server has the terminal server option enabled. The Citrix MetaFrame application provides Microsoft’s Windows Terminal Server with additional server and client functionality by allowing any client, no matter what operating system, to connect to a Windows Terminal Server and run a Windows application through their browser.
These include custom applications for DOS, Unix, AS/400 running accounting, financial and payroll systems that must print to a DOS printer.

This means that an 8-line FaxPress Premier, even with all eight lines set to Bi-Directional, will by default still only use a maximum of seven lines at any one time to send faxes. An eighth line will always be kept idle, reserved for incoming fax traffic.
Keeping the minimum number of idle lines set to one enables the system to dynamically mix send and receive jobs while still dedicating a line for incoming calls, which is ideal in most faxing environments. In some cases, however, you may decide to modify the mini- mum number of idle lines.

A user’s privilege level determines access to faxes and FaxPress Premier functions. There are four privilege levels: User – Can send, list, hold, view, print, save, discard, and cancel personal faxes. Also can create and edit personal phone directories and manage their own print jobs.
Mailbox ID (Optional) – Enter an identifier number. The identifier number may contain up to 7 digits. A mailbox ID is necessary if you want to be able to automatically route faxes to this user’s mailbox. See Automatic Routing and PBX Integration on page 89.

If you create FaxPress Enterprise users from existing Active Directory, Microsoft Exchange, or Novell network database groups, the FaxPress Enterprise login process can be integrat- ed with your network login via Single Sign On. This allows automatic login to the Enterprise without the prompting the user for a mailbox and password.
New users can be manually added either by copying the parameters of a user account you’ve already created, or by using one of three default, existing Premier accounts that will be listed in the Users & Groups>Users folder the first time you log into FaxPress Plus as Administrator and expand the Administration folder.
Microsoft Exchange, or Novell network database groups, see Importing and Mapping Users on page 192. To create a new user with account properties based on an existing user’s, right- click on an existing user account listed in the right panel and select Add. . .

Approvers are designated by their level of access privileges. FaxPress has enhanced the approval mechanism to allow users to submit a fax, view the rasterized fax image, and then decide if they approve of the appearance and content be- fore sending the fax.
Admin Guide > Configuring Fax Approval Select one of the following options to impose approval requirements: All All faxes local, long distance and international sent by users with this approval requirement must be approved prior to transmission.

The FaxPress Premier Archive is one of the FaxPress Premier server’s embedded services. The default startup type is automatic. FaxPress Premier Archive generates fax and log file archive information data. This data is stored in a database for subsequent archive retriev- al.
Once configured and started, the Archive service goes through the outgoing and incoming fax queues for all the FaxPress Premier users and stores all the faxes into the specified Archive directory, a shared folder on the network. The records for the archived faxes are stored in either a Microsoft SQL or Access database.

When your FaxPress server sends a fax, it will use the lookup table to determine whether to use a phone line or the internet. When it receives an internet fax, a FaxPress server will process the fax normally, but if the FaxPress server sees an external number, the FaxPress server will automatically use its phone lines to forward the fax to its final destination.

In most, but not all areas, the sum of the RENs of all devices con- nected to one line should not exceed five (5.0). To be certain of the number of devices you may connect to your line, as determined by the REN, you should contact your local tele- phone company to determine the maximum REN for your calling area.
Electrical Safety Advisory We recommend the installation of an AC surge arrestor in the AC outlet to which this equip- ment is connected. Telephone companies report that electrical surges, typically lighting transients, are very destructive to customer terminal equipment connected to AC power sources.
