In order to use this facility you must first set the PC Interface
function to ON. If you wish to discontinue using this
facility, you must set the PC Interface function to OFF
(see User Parameters).
Sending a Fax
When the PC interface function has been turned on, your
OKIFAX 740 will operate as an external fax modem.
Outgoing fax documents may be prepared using a variety
of text editors and other programs, or with the editor buit
into your PC fax program. The operation manual supplied
with your PC fax program will guide you through the
normal operations of sending and receiving fax messages.
Receiving a Fax
To receive messages automatically when your PC fax
program is running, set the number of rings in the program
to a value from 1 to 9, as required. If this setting is set to 0,
your OKIFAX 740 will not receive messages automatically.
When set to a value greater than 9, your OKIFAX 740 will

progress via the PC Interface, all buttons except [STOP]
are disabled. To halt the progress of a fax transaction
in thos mode, press
[STOP] on the fax machine, or
select the STOP function within your PC f ax
