Brother PC-FAX Software (MFC models only) PC-FAX receiving (Not available for MFC-250C and MFC-290C) 6 The Brother PC-FAX Receive Software lets you view and store faxes on your PC. It is automatically installed when you install the MFL-Pro Suite and works on locally or network connected machines. When enabled, your machine will receive faxes in its memory. Once it has received the fax, it will automatically be sent to your PC. If you turn your PC off, your machine will continue to receive and store your faxes in its memory. The machine LCD will display the number of stored faxes received, for example: PC Fax Msg:001 When you switch your PC on, the PC-FAX Receive Software automatically transfers your faxes to your PC. 6 To enable the PC-FAX Receive Software, do the following: Before you use the PC-FAX Receive function, you must choose PC-FAX Receive from the menu on the machine. Run the Brother PC-FAX Receive software on your PC. (We recommend you select the Add to Startup folder check box, so that the software automatically runs and can transfer any faxes on PC startup.) Note • See Troubleshooting and Routine Maintenance in the User's Guide or visit the Brother Solutions Center (http://solutions.brother.com) for more information. • To use PC-FAX receiving with a Windows® XP and Windows Vista® computer that is protected by a firewall, the Network PC-FAX receiving program must be excluded from the firewall setting. If you are using Windows® Firewall and you installed MFL-Pro Suite from the CD-ROM, the necessary Firewall settings have already been made. For more information, see Firewall settings (For Network users) on page 151. • (For 11 × 17 printing models) If you receive a fax containing multiple paper sizes (for example, a page of Letter data and a page of Ledger data) the machine creates a new file each time it receives a different paper size. When your PC is turned off, the machine stores the files in its memory. The LCD will show that more than one fax job has been received. 143
