I just installed a 1045 with print/scan/fax. This is the first time that I have had a customer want to use the LAN fax feature and I can't figure out how to set this up. Where do I get the driver? I have looked through the manual and all I can find is that you select the LAN Fax driver in the drop down printer menu, but I don't know how to get that option there in the first place. The sharing of your experience in this matter is greatly appreciated.

Even if you can direct me to a page in the appropriate manual, I would imagine it is explained somewhere, but I seem to be missing it.

Think of it as a print driver. It sends it to the 1035 as a print and with the GW it realized it as a fax and send it to the fax module. So you have to install it as a "printer" with the same IP address.

Darren,
Download and install the Lan-Fax driver just as you would the print driver and then direct it to the same port as you are sending your print jobs to. Works great!

Thanks!

The best way to install drivers is to use the Custom setup. Then I usually select SNM for Client, RPCS (sometimes the PCL) and Lan-Fax Driver if they have fax option. Also, I install the Address Book if they have the fax Option.

Thanks for your help. Everything is great now. I had my mind tainted with something I heard some time ago and was having a hard time with the simplicity. I am greatful and embarrassed.
