7 Using Brother PC-FAX software (For Windows®) PC-FAX sending The Brother PC-FAX feature allows you to use your PC to send any application or document file as a standard fax. You can create a file in any application on your PC, and then send it as a PC-FAX. You can even attach a cover page note. All you have to do is set up the receiving parties as Members or Groups in your PC-FAX Address Book or simply enter the destination address or fax number into the User Interface. You can use the Address Book Search feature to quickly find members to send your fax. ■ PC-FAX is available in Black & White only. ■ If you are using Windows® XP, Windows NT® 4.0 or Windows® 2000 Professional, we recommend that you are logged on with administrator rights. ■ Please check Brother Solutions Center for the latest updates available for Brother Network PC-FAX.
