If you are sharing your modem on an AppleTalk network, try
to minimize the time you spend previewing faxes. While you
are previewing, remote Fax Sender GX users are temporarily
blocked.

Sending a fax from a network client

Once a fax send server has been created and shared on your
AppleTalk network, other users on the network can access it
as a client, provided that they have the necessary access
privileges.
When these conditions are met, sending a fax as a network
client is no different from sending a fax from your local
Macintosh. The only exception is that you must select
Servers in the “Connect via” pop-up menu in the
Chooser dialog.

Important

When a transmission problem occurs, the error

is reported on the server, that is, the Macintosh that has the
modem hardware installed. Therefore, if you send faxes as a
network client, you should check the fax log of the server
frequently to verify that your faxes have been sent correctly.
