PC Faxing
This section provides information and instructions for PC Faxing from a
computer workstation connected to the WorkCentre 480cx. Using this
method, a fax is sent without first printing it and placing the printed
document in the Automatic Document Feeder. This process is controlled by
a PC Faxing application called LaserFAX Lite.
What is LaserFAX Lite?
LaserFAX Lite software is an application that is used to enable PC Faxing
using the WorkCentre 480cx. If selected during the installation of the other
software components for the WorkCentre 480cx, the LaserFAX Lite
application is installed automatically.
After it is installed, LaserFAX becomes a selection among the printing
devices for your computer workstat ion. When you send a fax directly from
your PC, you simply select LaserFAX as the destination for a print job. A
LaserFAX dialog is then displayed that prompts you to enter the phone
number and other information for the fax job.
LaserFAX Installation
To install LaserFAX Lite, no additional special hardware is required.
Simply ensure that the WorkCentre 480cx is connected to the computer
workstation using the supplied IEEE 1284 parallel cable, and a phone line
has also been connected to the Tel Line input on the back of the WorkCentre
480cx.
The system requirements and procedures for installing LaserFAX Lite
software are contained in Installing Software on page 1-31. Refer to this
section if LaserFAX Lite is not already installed on your computer
workstation.
