Configuring the fax settings
You can configure the fax settings through the printer control panel or the fax software. If you configure the fax settings
in the printer control panel, then the fax software imports those settings. The changes appear the next time you launch
the fax software. The printer also saves the settings that you choose in the fax software, unless you set the printer to
block changes made from the computer.
