Miscellaneous options

Screenshot 79- Advanced options

The miscellaneous options node can be found under the advanced node. It contains the following options:

Unlimited user options

•	Allow non-AD users to send faxes – this option does not check whether the sender is actually in Active Directory. It just sends the fax.

•	Only allow users in the Licensed user list to send faxes – this option only allows a user to send faxes if he/she is listed in the Licensed user list.

NOTE 1: These options are only applicable to the unlimited user version of GFI FAXmaker.

NOTE 2: The above options are mutually exclusive.

Performance options

•	Allow multi-processor usage – this option will instruct GFI FAXmaker to use all available processors.

•	Do not cache users on startup – If you have a lot of users (more then 2000), you can speed up the startup time by disabling the cache user feature. The cache user feature is not recommended for large networks.

•	Disable batch processing – if you are using an intelligent fax board, you can speed up the fax send process by disabling batch processing. This is not required because the faxing process is off loaded from the host processor.

Auto-print options

•	Force 1:1 printing – this option does not scale the fax at all. This might mean that some faxes are not completely printed because the received fax is larger then the paper in the printer.

Troubleshooting options

•	Enable debug mode – If you enable debug mode, GFI FAXmaker will create log files with extended debug in the logs directory.

Fax server options

•	Do not store sent fax attachments for resending – This option will disable the feature that stores faxes on the fax server, allowing users to resend faxes by hitting the reply button on a transmission report. By default the fax server will store a copy of each fax for 2 days.

•	Do not store failed fax attachments for resending – This option will disable the feature that allows a user to resend a failed fax by hitting the reply button. The failed fax will be retrieved by the fax server and resent. By default the fax server will store a copy of failed faxes for 1 week.
