1 Introduction
Wordcraft International Limited has specially designed ‘Unimessage Pro’ for use with the your fax machine or MFP [Multi­Function Peripherals]. With Unimessage Pro you will be able to send and receive fax messages quickly and easily by linking your device to your PC.
Subject to the devices with which you are using Unimessage Pro and the configuration of your specific copy of Unimessage Pro, other features of Unimessage Pro include:
Viewing your incoming and outgoing messages on screen in the Unimessage Pro Message Editor - UniPad.
Built in “New message” function for sending messages without having to use your word processing application.
Scanning hard copy documents using your TWAIN scanner.
Creating contacts in your Unimessage Pro Phonebooks for frequently used fax numbers and email addresses.
Automated message transmission using Unimessage Pro Embedded Commands.
Time-delayed transmission to take advantage of evening or weekend telephone rates.

1.2 Upgrading Unimessage Pro
Unimessage Pro can be upgraded for several reasons, including:
To add features, for example email functions are not included in all Unimessage Pro configurations.
To support multiple users on a LAN.
To support more devices at the same time.
To upgrade your copy of Unimessage Pro contact your local OKI sales office or dealer.
1.3 Unimessage Pro - Components
Unimessage Pro has three components:
1.3.1 The scheduler
This controls the list (queue) of jobs waiting to be done, makes sure jobs are done by the right device at the right time and keeps a record (log) of everything that happens. The Scheduler runs in the background so you can continue to use the PC for other work while jobs are being carried out.
On a network, only one Scheduler is required. This can run on any workstation, whether or not that workstation is connected to a device or is submitting fax or email jobs, but it is usually more convenient to run it on the first workstation to which you attach a device.

2
International Telecommunications Union, Document Transfer Mode

1.3.2 Device drivers
These get their instructions from the Scheduler and each one knows how to send or receive messages using a certain type of device
- mail server, modem or MFP. Device drivers also run in the background.
More than one driver (and more than one device) can be used on a single PC if the volume of messages requires it. On a network Unimessage Pro supports multiple devices (of different types if required) and multiple users, but the devices themselves should not be connected to network file servers which are already busy meeting the filing and printing needs of the network. Connecting devices to file servers would also restrict the total number of devices on the network - with Unimessage Pro you can connect up to 30 devices (subject to your software licence) - the more devices, the greater the throughput.
Depending on your configuration, the Unimessage Pro fax and email drivers may appear minimised at the foot of your screen. If so, double click on them to display the progress of a fax or email.
1.3.3 The user interface
This is the part of Unimessage Pro you use. One of its tasks is to enable you to send messages directly from any Windows application by printing to the Unimessage Pro printer. Unimessage Pro will convert this printed output into the correct format: fax or email, depending on the requirements of the person(s) you are sending it to.
It allows you to see the various job queues and lists that make up Unimessage Pro and it allows you to create and view messages as well as selecting various program options
On networks the user interface runs on each workstation that wants to send or receive messages.

2 Installation and device configuration

2.1 System requirements
Before you install Unimessage Pro you should make sure that you have an IBM compatible PC running Windows 95, 98, NT4 or above. The following minimum specification is recommended:
Pentium 120MHz, 16 MB Ram when running Windows 95 or 98 First Edition.
Microsoft Windows 95 OSR1 Service Pack 1 is recommended.
Pentium 120MHz, 32 MB Ram when running Windows NT4 or 98 Second Edition.
When using Windows NT4 please ensure that Microsoft NT4 Service Pack 4 or later is installed.
Pentium 133MHz, 64 MB Ram when running Windows 2000 Professional – 128 MB Ram recommended.
A 24-Bit colour video card and driver is recommended.
Please note that though Unimessage Pro will operate on the above specification PC this is a minimum. As with most Windows applications, Unimessage Pro will run faster when used on a PC with a faster processor or with more RAM. If you are using other applications on your PC at the same time as Unimessage Pro, a faster processor and additional RAM are highly recommended.
2.2 Connecting your Fax Machine
Your fax machine must be connected to your PC as recommended by the supplier via the PC’s parallel port. You must also install the redirector, printer driver and scanner software that was supplied with the unit or option kit, before you install the Unimessage Pro software so that Unimessage Pro can communicate with the fax machine.
For details of how your device can be connected please consult the documentation supplied with the device.
2.3 Installation
2.3.1 Stand-alone or Network Server installation
To install Unimessage Pro:
If using Windows NT4 or 2000, make sure you have Administrator access rights – this is necessary because Unimessage Pro needs to:
Register the location of some of its components.
Install any Windows updates that are required to use Unimessage Pro.
Create any printers provided by Unimessage Pro.
Close all applications that are running to avoid any conflicts during installation, especially Outlook or Exchange.
Make sure that the MFP or modem is connected correctly and is switched on.
5
If your MFP uses redirector software to allow the PC to send or receive messages you should install the redirector software first so that Unimessage Pro can communicate with the device. Consult the documentation supplied with the device and any Device Guide that may be included with your copy of Unimessage Pro.
If your copy of Unimessage Pro includes support for the sending and receiving of email messages via SMTP and POP3 servers and you want to access the internet via a Windows Dial Up Network [DUN] connection, make sure that you have installed a suitable modem driver under Windows and created the Windows DUN connection before you install Unimessage Pro.
Put the Unimessage Pro CD-ROM in your CD drive.
If the CD does not auto-run, Select Start, Run
In the dialog box type:
D:\SETUP (where “D” is your CD drive).
Press ENTER.
The Unimessage Pro Auto Installer Screen will be displayed. To select an option on the Unimessage Pro Auto Installer Screen either double click it or use cursor up/down to select it then press Enter on your keyboard.
Please follow the on-screen prompts to:
Select a language.
View any on-line documentation that may be included.
On-line documentation may be provided in Adobe® Acrobat™ format. A copy of the Adobe Acrobat Reader is supplied in case you do not already have Acrobat.
Start the Unimessage Pro installation.
When using Unimessage Pro on a network with a separate file server, ensure that you install Unimessage Pro onto the file server.
When using the peer-to-peer network functions provided by Windows 95, 98, NT4 or 2000, install Unimessage Pro onto the main PC’s hard disk then share the Unimessage Pro folder so that it is visible to all other Windows PCs where you want to be able to use Unimessage Pro. You must grant full access to the shared folder, read only access is not sufficient.
Once all the files have been copied from the CD, you should restart Windows before you use Unimessage Pro – doing so allows any required updates to be applied.
Unimessage Pro will continue the installation on re-starting. Please follow the instructions carefully.
Unimessage Pro requires you to enter your user details; you can enter any alphanumeric characters including spaces. Unimessage Pro will validate any data entered, as the information is very important and will be automatically used in fax or email details so that recipients can reply to you correctly.
If you have received a Unimessage Pro Upgrade Disk with your CD you should insert this when prompted to so that the new configuration can be implemented.
If you are installing Unimessage Pro for use on a network you can create users during the installation process. Each user is granted one of 3 privilege levels (Administrator, Supervisor or User) that determine what they are allowed to do.
If your copy of Unimessage Pro includes support for email devices and you have either a permanent connection to the Internet or a Windows DUN connection to the Internet, you can configure Unimessage Pro to send and receive email messages:
Define any SMTP and POP3 email servers that you want to be available with Unimessage Pro.
Configure Unimessage Pro to use either your permanent connection or an existing Windows DUN connection to the
Internet by selecting a device that can support data connections, such as a modem on the port that you have already defined a Windows DUN connection.
If you are using a Windows DUN connection you will need to enter User and Password details into Unimessage Pro even if these have already been entered when the connection was defined.
Select which SMTP and POP3 email servers can be accessed via the Unimessage Pro email driver.
Define the first email account and select whether it should be System-wide or User specific.
A System-wide email account is only visible to Unimessage Pro Administrators and Supervisors and any email retrieved using a System-wide email account is added to the Network Inbox. A User specific email account is visible to the user associated with it as well as all Administrators and Supervisors. Any email retrieved using a User specific email account is added to the user’s Received items folder.
If the device you select or detect can support the sending or receiving of fax messages, and you want to use it to send or receive fax messages, you will need to configure it.
When Unimessage Pro has collected sufficient information it will create a shortcut to start Unimessage Pro, which it will then run.
6
Before you can send email messages, you must have defined an email driver and an email account. If you configured Unimessage Pro for use with a fax machine during installation, you must define a new device and account for email messages.
Additional devices can be defined by selecting connected.
You will only be permitted to have the number of devices permitted by your license active at any one time. You may be able to upgrade your copy of Unimessage Pro to allow more devices to be active at the same time if your message traffic requires it, refer your Unimessage Pro Administrator to the section on Upgrading Unimessage Pro if required.
Additional email accounts can be defined by selecting
If you have installed Unimessage Pro onto a local hard disk [HD] and want to use it from other PCs on a peer-to-peer
network remember to share the Unimessage Pro folder with full access rights to all other PCs that you want to be able to use Unimessage Pro.
If you are using a Windows Dial Up Networking [DUN] connection and are also connected to a LAN using the IPX/SPX protocol, e.g. some versions of Novell Netware, you will be disconnected from the LAN whilst the Windows DUN connection is established. To avoid this display the properties for the Windows DUN, click the tab and

4.4.2 Email accounts
There are 2 types of email accounts in Unimessage Pro:
System-wide
These accounts are only shown in the list of email accounts for Unimessage Pro Supervisors and Administrators who can use them to send email messages. However, any email retrieved using the POP3 email server account defined in a System-wide email account is added to the Network Inbox.
User specific
These accounts “belong” to one specific Unimessage Pro user. Any email messages retrieved using a user specific email account are moved directly into the appropriate user’s Received items folder, they do not pass through the Network Inbox.
A Unimessage Pro user with User privileges sees only those email accounts that “belong” to them, they can create more email accounts but can only use POP3 and SMTP servers already defined by Unimessage Pro Administrators.
4.4.2.1 Selecting an email account to send email messages
Before any Unimessage Pro user can send any email messages via Unimessage Pro at least one email account must be shown in the user’s view of the clicking on it and selecting
Once an email account has been set as default that user can submit email messages. However, email messages will only be sent when a Unimessage Pro device capable of sending and receiving email messages via the appropriate SMTP and POP3 email servers is available. If no such device is available email messages will remain in the Outbox unsent, and no email messages will be received.
