FAX Set Up and Operation Guide

P0886629 Issue 1.0

You can add or update a Fax message by loading the Fax message onto a 3.5" disk 
and inserting the 3.5" disk into the floppy disk drive of your Norstar applications 
server. This method will result in a cleaner outgoing fax and the process will be 
noticeably faster than adding a Fax message from a fax machine telephone.

You will be prompted to enter the number of a Fax-on-demand Mailbox and the 
selection identification number of the Fax message at the Norstar set. Then place 
the disk into the disk drive of the Norstar applications server. If the Fax message is 
a new document and not an updated version of a past document, you must confirm 
its creation.

After you have added a Fax message to a Fax-on-demand Mailbox, you should 
verify the existence of the Fax message by sending it to a fax machine. Ensure the 
Fax message is complete and the page numbering matches the number of pages of 
the selection. Check all selections in the Fax-on-demand Mailbox before 
advertising the selections in your Fax-on-demand greeting. 

The disk must contain only one Fax message. The Fax message must be in one of 
the file formats indicated by the appropriate file extension listed below: 

Note: Norstar Voice Mail FAX supports black and white .PCX files created with 

Paintbrush for Windows 3.1. If you are using another application, verify that 
the file has been successfully added and the Fax message can be sent to a 
fax  machine. If the file cannot be sent to a fax machine successfully, refer 
to 

 on page 73, for 

the required content of the .PCX file header.
