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.)
