Re: Windows Fax Server
Well, that's the thing, the AIO is hooked up to a phone lin,e for the faxing
function...
the reason I posted this in outlook is because all the information i have
found on the internet, menitons Microsoft Exchange and fax server.
I have been unable to find any information regarding setting up the fax
server...
The Dell 3115cn is not connected directly to the server, instead it's
connected to the router, and iv'e got all the ports setup as local TCP/IP
ports.
Ifd you have any information or know of a good location, i could find this
out, i'd appricaite it.

Re: Windows Fax Server
The AIO cannot be used by any Windows Fax service to send/receive faxes;
this includes XP Fax, Windows Fax and Scan (Vista), and the Shares Fax
Service supported by Windows Server 2003 and all versions of Small Business
Server. These can only work with an old fashioned analog fax modem. As to
setting up the fax server, This is what I've found:
