Sending a fax using the computer Faxing from a computer lets you send electronic documents without leaving your desk. This gives you the flexibility of faxing documents directly from software programs. Note: In order to perform this function from your computer, you must use the PostScript printer driver for your printer. 1 From your software program, click File Print. 2 From the Print window, select your printer, and then click Properties. 3 Choose the Other Options tab, and then click Fax. 4 Click OK, and then click OK again. 5 On the Fax screen, type the name and number of the fax recipient. 6 Click Send. Creating shortcuts Creating a fax destination shortcut using the Embedded Web Server Instead of entering the entire phone number of a fax recipient on the printer control panel each time you want to send a fax, you can create a permanent fax destination and assign a shortcut number. A shortcut can be created to a single fax number or a group of fax numbers. 1 Type the printer IP address into the address field of your Web browser. Note: If you do not know the IP address of the printer, then print a network setup page and locate the IP address in the TCP/IP section. 2 Click Settings. 3 Click Manage Shortcuts. Note: A password may be required. If you do not have an ID and password, get one from your system support person. 4 Click Fax Shortcut Setup. 5 Type a unique name for the shortcut, and then enter the fax number. To create a multiple-number shortcut, enter the fax numbers for the group. Note: Separate each fax number in the group with a semicolon (;). 6 Assign a shortcut number. If you enter a number that is already in use, then you are prompted to select another number. 7 Click Add. Faxing 113
