PC Fax Receive
If you turn on the PC-Fax Receive feature
your machine will store received faxes in
memory and send them to your PC
automatically. You can then use your PC to
view and store these faxes.
Even if you have turned off your PC (at night
or on the weekend, for example), your
machine will receive and store your faxes in
its memory. The LCD will show the number of
stored faxes received, for example:
PC Fax Msg:001
When you start your PC and the PC-FAX
Receiving software runs, your machine
transfers your faxes to your PC automatically.
To transfer the received faxes to your PC you
must have the PC-FAX Receive software
running on your PC. (For details, see PC-FAX
receive (including when the PC is turned off)
in the Software User’s Guide on the
CD-ROM.)
If you select Backup Print On, the machine
will also print the fax.

the receiving machine. The machine can
store faxes up to 4 days if there is a power
failure.
