Configure a Fax Filing Repository using SMB

Installation Checklist

1. Following the fax server software manufacturer's instructions, create a shared folder on the fax server

to be used as a scan filing location (repository) for scanned documents. Write down the Share Name
of the folder and the Computer Name or Server Name.

2. Create a user account (login name) and password for the machine on the server. Make sure that the

machine has full access rights to the scan directory. Write down the user account (login name) and
password.

3. If allowed by the fax server software manufacturer, test the settings by attempting to connect to the

shared folder from another PC by logging in with the user account and password. Create a new folder
within the directory and then delete the folder. If you cannot perform this function check the user
account access rights and Share setup. Note that you can also simply wait until you have finished
setting up device to server communications, as stated in this section, then send a fax to the server to
test the communications setup.
