PC Faxing 5-19
PC Faxing
The Desktop Manager continues to try sending the fax until the
transmission is successful or the Desktop Manager exceeds the
defined number of retries. If a job cannot complete successfully
within the specified number of retries, the job is marked with a
Failed status.
❏
On Hold
A held job is a PC fax you chose to place on hold, rather than send it
immediately.
❏
Failed
A job receives a Failed status because a PC fax could not be sent
successfully. This occurs because the Desktop Manager exceeded the
defined number of retries. For example, a PC fax may have failed
because of a continuously busy fax line or an incorrect fax number.
❏
Stopped
A stopped job is an active job that you stopped from processing
before it was completed.
Stopping an Active Job
If necessary, you can stop the active job from processing. When you do so,
the Desktop Manager retains the job in the Send Fax Manager as a
stopped job. You can later reprocess or delete the job.
To stop an active job:
Open the Send Fax Manager and click Stop on the Edit menu or toolbar.
Sending a Scheduled, Held, Failed, or Stopped PC Fax
A PC fax job remains in the Send Fax Manager if it is scheduled for
sending later, if it is on hold, if it failed to transmit in the specified
number of retries, or it was stopped. You can reprocess the job for
sending now or reschedule it for a different time.
