Basic Operation for Sending Faxes from a Computer

This section describes the basic operation for sending faxes from a computer.

You can select the destination from the LAN-Fax Address Book or enter the fax number directly. You can send faxes to up to 100 destinations at one time.

Before sending a fax, the machine stores all the fax data in memory. If the machine's memory becomes full while storing this data, the fax transmission will be canceled. If this happens, lower the resolution or reduce the number of pages and try again.
