Sending Fax Documents from Computers

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 M(number)] 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 the 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.

1On the [File] menu, click [Print...]

2Select [LAN-Fax M(number)] in the list

3Click [Print]

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

4Specify 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.

5Specify necessary options such as [Print Fax Header] and [Attach a Cover Sheet]

6Click [Send]

Note

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

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

    • Number of destinations you can specify per file

    • 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 using Web Image Monitor. For details about how to check the transmission result, see Web Image Monitor Help.
