output to fax line
back reception on the fax line
printing of the sending copy
delivery notification
Client systems need power to handle the user access, e.g.:
load a template
scanning
search in address book
transmit a message
check the outbox
Some further statements:
Systems with gateways or links have less client traffic but need power for document conversion
back reception at fax lines doubles the load of the sending process
returning back reception to the e-mail user doubles the load on link side
automatic printout from KCS creates very high load
also document conversion on links and gateways creates very high load
the more fax lines are in use the less power is available for other jobs (priority of TCOSS)
more RAM improves performance
