SENDING/RECEIVING A PC FAX

(SX6P-300C series only)

A PC can send and receive faxes using the SX6P. Your account with your service provider must
support circuit switched data transfer for the SX6P’s PC fax function to work. Note that you must
use a PC to send faxes with the SX6P; a fax machine connected directly to the SX6P will not
work.

Set the SX6P Baud Rate for PC Fax

1. Start by pressing MENU.
2. Select 6: Data Settings.
3. Select 1: Baud Rate.
4. Select 19200 and Press STO to save.

Set Your Computer’s Port and Modem Speeds for PC Fax

To send or receive faxes, you need to set the port and modem speeds your computer uses for
the SX6P to 19200 bps. See Windows XP/2000 Setup (pages 24 & 26).

To Send a PC Fax

Use your computer’s fax software to dial the receiving fax machine’s number. Whenever your
software asks you what modem to use, select the Standard 19200 Modem.

To Receive a PC Fax

First configure your SX6P to recognize incoming faxes.
1. Start by pressing MENU.
2. Select 6: Data Settings.
3. Select 3: RX Data Mode.
4. Select Fax Next Call or Fax Only and Press STO to save.

If Fax Only is selected, your SX6P will treat all incoming calls as if they were Class 2 faxes. To
return your SX6P to normal operation, choose Voice Always from the RX Data Mode Menu.
If Fax Next is selected, your SX6P will treat the next incoming call as a Class 2 fax, then
return to normal operation.

Once your SX6P is configured to recognize incoming faxes, use your computer’s fax software.
Whenever your software asks you what modem to use, select the Standard 19200 Modem.
Note: Taking the SX6P off hook while sending or receiving a fax will end the transfer.
