PC Fax Receive

9

If you turn on the PC-Fax Receive feature 
your machine will store received faxes in 
memory and send them to your PC 
automatically. You can then use your PC to 
view and store these faxes.

Even if you have turned off your PC (at night 
or at the weekend, for example), your 
machine will receive and store your faxes in 
its memory. The LCD will show the number of 
stored faxes received, for example: 

PC Fax Msg:001

When you start your PC and run the PC-FAX 
Receiving software, your machine transfers 
your faxes to your PC automatically.

To transfer the received faxes to your PC you 
must first have the PC-FAX Receiving 
software running on your PC. (For details, 
see 

PC-FAX receiving 

in the Software User’s 

Guide on the CD-ROM.)

If you choose 

Backup Print:On

 the 

machine will also print the fax.
