Printer

Previous  Top  Next

On the Printer property sheet of the Properties dialog box, you define the default network printer to be used by the fax server when printing received faxes and sent fax confirmations.  
The settings you define here affect all FACSys users connected to this fax server. For example, if you enable the 'Print confirmation' option, then a confirmation will be printed for every fax sent by every user connected to this server.

NOTES:

·

Print confirmations can be printed only on a LaserJet III or higher/later printer.

·

If the print queue resides on a Windows system, the print queue must be shared.

·

If a different network printer is defined in a user's FACSys profile, that printer will be used to print the user's inbound faxes.

Define the fax server's Print Options. To define the default printer path, use the universal naming convention format. For example, a specific print queue on the "Sales" server may be indicated by \\sales\printer1.  
To route a user's print confirmations to the network printer defined in the user's FACSys profile (rather than the server's default printer), do not check the option 'Always print confirmations to this server's default printer'.  
If you select the option 'Always print a confirmation for each fax sent by this server,' then FACSys will print confirmations for all users, regardless of the settings in the User Profiles.
