Integrated Fax
The FRITZ!Box is equipped with an integrated fax function
so that you can receive faxes without having to connect a
fax machine. The integrated fax machine forwards incom-
ing faxes to an e-mail address, or stores them on a USB
memory device connected to the FRITZ!Box.
For operation the integrated fax machine must be set up
using the Wizard for telephony devices in the FRITZ!Box
user interface. For this, enter an e-mail address to which
incoming faxes should be forwarded.
If the FRITZ!Box is connected to an analog fixed line with
only one number, remember to enable automatic fax de-
tection as well. The fax detection works passively, mean-
ing that it does not detect an incoming fax until a call has
been accepted. For this reason we recommend also using
the Wizard for telephony devices to set up an answering
machine, so that fax detection can also function when you
do not accept a call.
The integrated fax machine of the FRITZ!Box supports only
fax reception. To send faxes you can install the “FRITZ!fax
for FRITZ!Box” software. This program can be downloaded
from the AVM web site for the operating systems
Windows 7, Windows Vista and Windows XP.
