Once installed, you can print to a E-Fax from any application, and it will pop up a simple dialog box, allowing you to enter the destination FAX number. It's not intended to be fancy or all encompassing, just a quick and easy way to send fax from any Windows application

12.3 Print2fax user’s guide

Print2fax is a Windows print monitor designed to send its output directly to a E-Fax Server. Once installed, you can print to a E-Fax Server from any application, and it will pop up a simple dialog box, allowing you to enter the destination FAX number. It's not intended to be fancy or all encompassing, just a quick and easy way to send FAXes from any Windows application

Print2fax installation:

It is packaged in the form of a Windows Installer, which installs the required sets of .DLL files and registers the monitor with the system. This adds support for a new type of port to your system, called a " Print2fax Port." Once you've successfully installed the files, setup is straightforward, but it has a number of steps. First, you'll want to create an appropriate PostScript printer using the "Add Printer" button. You want to select a "Local printer," but since it's not a physical printer, uncheck the "Automatically detect and install my Plug and Play printer" box.

Page 34

Linkcom France 34

Next, you'll be asked what port to use. Select the radio button "create a new port type." If the installation went well, you should see "Print2fax" as one of the options. The drop list might scroll, so it may not be obvious that it's at the bottom of the list. (If it doesn't appear on the list at all, something went wrong with your installation.)

Page 35

Linkcom France 35

Next, a box will pop up for you to name the port. The name doesn't actually matter, but naming it FAX1: will help to identify it.

Next, select the printer type. Experience has shown that the “Apple LaserWriter 12/640 PS” and the “Canon C LBP 360PS” are good choices, and I recommend them. Most any other PostScript printer will probably work.

Page 36

Linkcom France 36

Of course, name it whatever you want, but we suggest this way "Print2fax"

Page 37

Linkcom France 37

Do not share the printer. This is rather silly anyway, since you can locally install Print2fax on any system that needs it, and it communicates directly with the E-Fax server. Since it pops up the dialog box asking where to send the FAX job locally, this would be ugly, at best. Also, don't print a test page, since you're not done configuring the printer yet.

Right-click on the printer to call up its properties, and select the "Ports" tab. Locate the port you just created.

Page 38

Linkcom France 38

Press the "Configure Port" button to configure the connection to your E-Fax server.

Most people who have problems are going to have problems because their E-Fax server won't let them connect.
