Receiving Faxes on a Computer

You can receive faxes and save them as PDF files to the computer connected to the printer. The FAX Utility comes with features including how to specify a folder to save the faxes. Install the FAX Utility before using this feature.

Note:

You can use one of the following methods to install the FAX Utility.

  • Using the EPSON Software Updater (application for updating software)

  • Using the disc supplied with your printer. (Windows users Only )

Important:
  • To receive faxes on a computer, the Receive Mode on the printer's control panel must be set to Auto.

  • The computer set to receive faxes should always be on. Received documents are saved in the printer's memory temporarily before the documents are saved on the computer. If you turn off the computer, the printer's memory might become full as it cannot send the documents to the computer.

  • When received faxes have been temporarily saved to the printer's memory, the light turns on.

  • To read the received faxes, you need to install a PDF viewer such as Adobe Reader in the computer.
