that line for incoming fax calls. Modifying the number of idle lines to zero will allow the
FaxPress to send faxes with only one line connected and configured.
Modifying the Number of Idle Lines
Keeping the minimum number of idle lines set to one enables the system to dynamically
mix send and receive jobs while still dedicating a line for incoming calls, which is ideal in
most faxing environments. In some cases, however, you may decide to modify the
minimum number of idle lines.
Consider modifying the minimum number of idle lines from one to zero to use all of the
FaxPress’s lines for sending, or to dedicate more than one line for incoming fax jobs.
To modify the minimum number of idle lines, follow these steps:
1. Run regedit.
2. Right-click in the right hand window and select New. Unless the minimum idle
lines entry has already been created, there will be no Min Idle Lines entry in the
registry.
3. Select DWORD Value.
4. In the DWORD Value dialog box, change the new DWORD value to Min Idle Lines.
5. Once created, double-click on the Min Idle Lines key and enter 0 (or a higher
value) in the dialog box. Zero is the necessary value for sending with one line or
for setting up a send-only environment.
6. Restart the Captaris Intel Fax Services (FPIFSrvc) service.

Required FaxPress Configuration
Before beginning the basic configuration, first make sure:
„
the FaxPress is properly connected to your network and phone system, and is
powered on.
„
either the FaxPress Client for Administrators or the FaxPress Client for Users is
installed on a network workstation, preferably on the same segment as the
FaxPress.
After you’re finished with the basic configuration steps described here, be sure to send and
receive a test fax using the Administrator account (see Sending a Test Fax on page 107)
to confirm the settings are correct before going on to configuring your FaxPress for DID
and PBX integration (see Automatic Routing and PBX Integration on page 81), or to
creating and configuring new FaxPress users. (See .)
Note: If your FaxPress is operating in a Novell environment, see User
Authentication (Novell Only) on page 139.
