For network-wide usage of the fax service, the fax client software needs to be installed on the single computers in the network. The installation of the fax client is done with the same setup program as the installation of the fax server; the only difference is, that you need to choose the option to install the client components in the component selection window of the setup program. After the fax client has been installed, the ActiveFax printer is available to send faxes from any Windows application and the fax client to access existing faxes for the single users from the PC.

The first time the fax client is started, the network is automatically scanned for available fax servers. Choose the favored fax server from the list in that case. Since normally there is only a single fax server in a network, the located fax server is automatically pre-selected as the default setting.
