LAN Fax (PCL Drivers)
You can facsimile documents directly from your PC in the same way you would print a document. This is
known as the LAN Fax.
Initial Setup
Refer to the TCP/IP Peer to Peer (LPR or Standard TCP/IP) Printing topic, in the Print Drivers section, and
add the printer to the Windows 2000 or Windows XP desktop using a Standard TCP/IP Port. After the
driver has been installed, perform the following steps:
1. Right mouse click on the Printer’s icon and select Properties.
2. Click the Options tab, then click the Get Information from Printer button.
3. The Network Address box should now be displaying the printer’s IP address and a checkmark should
appear in the Enable Bi-Directional Communication checkbox. Also, the Fax Module listing in the
Items box should now be displayed as Available.
