RightFax Server Support and Requirements

All RightFax servers that will be used for sending faxes from Sharp
devices must be version 9.0 or higher. Microsoft Internet Explorer
version 6 is required on all RightFax servers.

The repository folder where outbound faxes originating from the
Sharp device will be placed must be configured as an FTP site on
an IIS server on your network. Before you begin, ensure that the
FTP component is installed on the IIS server you want to use. You
should also add a subfolder called Sharp under the
\Inetpub\ftproot folder on the IIS server. This will be used as the
repository folder.

If you are upgrading from an earlier version
of the External Document Connector

Installing the RightFax MFP Module will overwrite all earlier
versions of the RightFax External Document Connector (EDC) for
Sharp extensions, discarding any existing configuration settings.
Captaris strongly recommends that you write down or take
screenshots of the existing configuration settings before installing
the RightFax MFP Module. Many of these settings will be reused
with the RightFax MFP module and information about your existing
EDC settings will simplify the process of configuring the new
module.
