Understanding the
Fax Port
If your printer has a Tri-Port interface option card
installed and the serial interface port is not in use, you can
use your printer to receive and print fax data.
The serial interface port is only available if a Tri-Port inter-
face option card is installed in your printer. See “Tri-Port
Interface Option Card” on page 212 for more information.
When you want to use the fax serial port for another pur-
pose, you must first follow the instructions for disabling
the fax port on page 200. If you decide to reactivate the fax
port, make sure you follow the instructions for setting up
the fax port on page 198.
Note:
Never attempt to config-
ure your serial port for multiple
uses with an A-B switch.
Choosing
Hardware
To use your printer serial port to process fax data, you
need an external, class 1 fax modem. You can use virtually
any brand, as long as it is a class 1 fax modem.
