Fax Overview

FP

The optional Fax feature works much the same as a standard facsimile machine. Extra features,
covered in this section, such as the Address Book, Group Dial, Comments, and the use of
Mailboxes, are meant to provide additional capabilities

in support of the Fax feature.

Note: It is assumed that you purchased the appropriate 1 or 3 line Fax hardware kit for use with your
Device. If you did not, contact your Xerox Representative to purchase this option.

Checking and Setting Critical Fax Parameters

Refer to the Fax Settings Topic

(including Fax Defaults and Fax Control) in this section to determine if

Fax Defaults and Fax Control parameters are correctly set for your environment.
