SmartJet Printer Driver
Before you can use any type of printer with your computer, you must
install a printer driver. The printer driver tells the computer what kind of a
printer you are using. The printer driver also controls the various settings,
such as print quality and paper type. You define these settings within the
printer driver, and the printer driver then communicates the settings to
both the computer and the printer.
To use the SmartJet as your printer, you must install the SmartJet Printer
Driver in your computer. After installing the printer driver, make sure the
SmartJet is selected as a default printer to use SmartJet as your printer.
SmartJet Scanner Driver
Scanner driver allows you to scan images from any graphics or OCR
(optical character recognition) applications programme that supports the
TWAIN standard (e.g. Presto! PageManager, Adobe Photoshop). To use the
SmartJet as your scanner, you must install the SmartJet Scanner Driver in
your computer.
Presto! PageManager
With Presto! PageManager, you can easily scan documents and photographs
into your computer and maintain them as electronic documents. You can
also use Presto! PageManager to quickly transmit scanned documents by fax
or electronic mail, or to print a copy on your printer.
To use Presto! PageManager as your scanning application, you must install
the Presto! PageManager in your computer.
SmartFAX RCP Utility
The SmartFAX Remote Control Programme (RCP) utility enables you to
make a copy or send a fax through your SmartJet machine even when an
extension phone is not connected with your SmartJet. If you install the RCP
utility, the SmartFAX program is installed on your computer. The SmartFAX
allows you to dial a fax number and set up advanced fax options. The
display window on the SmartFAX shows the current status, and
information messages and prompts.
The SmartFAX is installed on LPT1. You can change the LPT port, if
necessary. See page 1.22.

Installing Smart Soft
SmartJet Fax Driver
The SmartJet Fax Driver allows you to use a Class-2 compatible PC-FAX
application like WinFax LITE 4.0. The SmartJet Fax Driver is a Windows
programme that silently runs in the background all the time. You can open
the SmartJet Fax Driver display by clicking on itÕs icon in the Control Panel
menu. You can also terminate the Fax Driver at any time, if necessary.
When you exit the Fax Driver, it will offer you two options. One option is to
terminate the SmartJet, and the other option is to keep the Fax Driver
running in the background. If you decide to terminate the Fax Driver then
all current and future SmartJet usage will be terminated until you restart
the SmartJet Fax Driver or restart Windows. You can also restart the
SmartJet Fax Driver from the Control Panel menu at any time.
You can change the Fax Driver COM port, which should be consistent with
the COM port used by PC-FAX application. Its default COM port is COM3.
1 Getting Started
¥Your SmartJet cannot perform more than one job at the same time. If you
try to use the SmartJet while it performs one job, it may malfunction.
¥It is recommended not to set automatic receiving mode through the PC-FAX
application like WinFax LITE, because it occupies the LPT port all the time and
you cannot use your SmartJet for printing, scanning, or any other job.
