Transferring Fax Print Jobs via Control Characters in the Text

The ixi-UMS PS-printer can read out the fax number and the subject from the document to be printed and can transfer it to the mail client, together with the printed document. This way, a fax is addressed and sent automatically.

Some applications transfer the call number and maybe the subject of a fax in the document as text.

In this case, the following entries must be contained in the text:

@@FAX: <fax number>@@ @@Betreff: <optional entry of a mail subject>@@

Remark:

Depending on the configuration, other control characters can be valid as well. Please ask your system administrator which syntax is valid for you.

Important:

1.This entry can also be multiline.

@@FAX <fax number>@@

@@Betreff: <optional entry of a mail subject>@@

2.The entries do not have to be visible.

 In order that the recipient does not see these entries, they should always be in white resp. in backround color.

3.The prefixes are case sensitive.

4.The data cannot be recognized in any font.

 The entry of the data and prefixes should be formatted in font Arial, Helvetica or Courier.

When the document is printed on the ixi-UMS PS printer, it is automatically sent via the mail client. The fax can be inspected at "Sent Items".

Remark:

1.If you type the parameters into a document yourself to automatically transfer the fax number, some versions of Word may have problems if you change them later. For example, if you mistype the word "FAX" and correct this word, this parameter may no longer be evaluated. If this effect occurs, delete the entire line and re-type everything.

2.During transfer to the mail client, umlauts from the "Subject" field are not transferred correctly. The content of the fax is not affected.
