Previous Next

This section explains how to send fax documents created using Windows applications.

To send a fax, simply select [Print...] from the Windows application, then select [LAN-Fax M15] as the printer, and then specify a destination in the [LAN-Fax] dialog box.

Open an existing document that you want to send.

For details, see LAN-Fax Driver Help. See Reading the LAN-Fax Driver Help.

When entering a destination directly or using the destination list of the LAN-Fax to specify a destination, you cannot specify an e-mail destination and folder destination.

On the [File] menu, click [Print...].

Select [LAN-Fax M15] in the list.

Click [Print].

The setting method may differ depending on the application you are using. In all cases, select [LAN-Fax M15] for the printer.

Specify the destination.

To use the LAN-Fax Address Book, select destinations from the destination list on the [Address Book] tab.

To enter destinations manually, enter them on the [Specify Destination] tab.

Specify necessary options such as "Sending at specific time" and "E-mail TX results".

Click [Send].

When you click [Send & Print], the fax is sent to the destination and your machine prints a copy of the document you sent. You can check the images of sent faxes.

- The machine can retain documents sent from a LAN-Fax Driver as files to be sent.

- When specifying multiple destinations, if you select different lines, the document is sent using the Simultaneous Broadcast function. For details about the Simultaneous Broadcast function, see Simultaneous Broadcast Using Multiple Line Ports.

- For the maximum values of the following items, see Maximum Values:

  - Number of destinations you can specify per file

  - Number of documents sent from a LAN-Fax Driver that the machine can retain as files to be sent

  - Number of digits that can be included in a destination

- When the computer and machine are connected via USB 2.0, a printing error message such as "This document failed to print" might appear, even though the print job was sent to the machine correctly. If this happens, check the print job transmission result on the machine's control panel. For details about how to check the transmission result, see Checking the Transmission Result (Transmission File Status).
