Introduction
The PC-FAX EXPANDER Type 450e option is a combination of the physical connection between a PC and the fax machine using EIA Class 2 faxing software and
PC software that expand the operations of the equipment by providing:
• faxing directly from the PC using the fax machine's modem
• the use of fax memory for improved faxing from the PC
• the use of the fax machine as a laser printer
RS232 PC-FAX EXPANDER Type 450e offers two fax communication paths: direct, and through fax memory.
Direct communication uses the fax machine's modem as its external modem,
and increases broadcasting potential by being able to use the large PC memory.
Memory communication brings access to the fax machine faxing capabilities
and the ability to direct where incoming fax messages will be received.
• Modified Modified Read (MMR) fax compression technique for more efficient transmission
• Error Control Mode (ECM) for higher quality transmission
• The fax machine's programmed Quick Dial, Speed Dial, and Group numbers
to dial from the PC
• G4 communication from your PC (with ISDN unit option only)
The RS232 PC-FAX EXPANDER Type 450e connection adds the laser printer to
your PC system's capabilities.
Documents from your PC can be printed with 200 x 200 dpi resolution and proprietary using the fax machine's laser printer.
1
RS232 Cable Connection and Modem
Setup
When RS232 PC-FAX EXPANDER Type 450e is installed, your fax machine can
be connected like an external modem to one of your PC communication ports.
A PC usually has two communications, or serial, ports located in the back. These
ports will accept 25-pin or 9-pin connectors (the type known as DB25 or DB9).
The fax machine will use one of them. If you have a serial mouse, it may be using
the other.
A serial port must be available to connect RS232 PC-FAX EXPANDER Type 450e
to your PC.
You will need a "straight-through" shielded serial cable to connect the fax to one
of the serial ports located in the back of the PC. A shielded cable will protect the
communication in noise radiating environments. The cable can be purchased at
a local computer supply store.
One end of the cable should have a 25-pin male DB25-type connector to plug
into the fax machine's PC-FAX EXPANDER port. The other end should have either a 25-socket female or a 9-socket female connector to plug into the serial
port on your PC.
It is important to examine your PC to determine which female connector you
will need for your cable.

Note
❒ Do not connect or disconnect the RS232C cable while the power is on to the
connection device.

2. Advanced Operation
Transmission
A RS232 PC-FAX EXPANDER Type 450e transmission from the PC will be either
direct or through the fax machine memory. The transmission path is set by the
fax machine's User Parameter Switch 20 Digit 0. See P.8 “User Parameter Switch
20 and 21” for more Switch 20 information.

G4 Transmission From the PC (with ISDN
unit option)
For more details, see "ISDN unit option" in fax machine manual.
G4 transmission requires the installation of the ISDN Unit in the fax machine.
To dial G4 fax numbers from the PC, use programmed Quick Dials and Speed
Dials with special prefixes. Using the programmed Dials requires setting the fax
for memory transmission. The fax machine will add the G4 Terminal ID to the
transmission.
A The User Parameter Switch 20 is set for memory transmission.
Digit 0 is 1.
See P.8 “User Parameter Switch 20 and 21” for more Switch 20 information.
B Program fax machine Quick Dials and Speed Dials with G4 fax number and
subaddress if needed.
For more details, see Quick Dials and Speed Dials with G4 fax number in the
fax machine manual:
C Follow the sending procedures of your faxing application's user manual.
D Dial the prefixes and the G4 Quick Dial or Speed Dial numbers from the PC
as described in P.13 “Quick Dials, Speed Dials, and Group Dials”.
For example:
TO DIAL : PRESS :
G4 Quick Dial 03 # 0 3
G4 Speed Dial 03 # * 0 3 (or # * 0 0 3)
G4 Group 04 (stored in Quick Dial 05) # * * 0 4 (or # 0 5)

Installation Suggestions
Installation Suggestions
If your faxing application has difficulty in locating the modem, check the fax
machine to make sure it is on and ready: Turn it off. Wait a few seconds. Turn it
back on.
Run the MS-DOS diagnostics to review the COM ports and IRQs for possible
conflicts.
Communication Ports
The PC's serial ports are usually configured as COM1 and COM2. They are assigned Interrupt Request numbers (IRQs). IRQs establish priorities, which prevent conflicts occurring when two devices want to use the same resources at the
same time.

To determine the availability of COM ports and their IRQs, Windows users can
run the MS-DOS
type msd:
C:\WIN> cd\
C:\>msd
When the diagnostics menu appears, choose "COM Ports". The next screen will
show what COM ports are enabled or available. Choose "IRQ Status" to show
what Interrupt Request status each COM port has. The COM ports must not
have the same IRQ: they are usually configured with IRQ4 and IRQ3.
For example:
IRQ STATUS
IRQ ADDRESS DESCRIPTION DETECTED HANDKED BY
3 F000: EF6F COM2: COM4: COM2 BIOS
4 CE29: 0096 COM1: COM3: COM1: BIOS
The installation of an internal modem might cause an IRQ conflict between two
ports, even if no device is using the second port. The second port may have been
disabled to overcome the problem.
One solution is to remove the internal modem and re-enable the COM port. Another solution is to install a third serial port.
