Server Fax Overview
If your machine supports the Scan feature, installing the Server Fax Kit (optional) allows you
to use the Fax feature of a Server Fax server.
With the Server Fax feature, you can transfer image data received by the machine to the
Server Fax server, and can transfer image data received by the Server Fax server to the
machine via a network based on the settings you made.
Important • While the Fax Server feature is enabled, the Fax feature is detected as "not installed" even if the Fax
Kit 2 (optional) is installed on the machine. During that time, therefore, fax transmission and
reception are disabled and printed reports show that the machine does not support the Fax feature.
Note • The Server Fax service cannot be used together with a fax, the IP Fax (SIP), or the Internet Fax
service.
