Configuring the Netprintqueue2FAX feature

Note: If users using the Email2FAX gateway, wish to use the Netprintqueue2FAX feature, you must ensure that the User login name is configured to be the same as their network login name.

NetPrintQueue2FAX configuration

Setting up the NetPrintQueue2FAX feature is quite easy. You can access the configuration by right clicking on the node in the FAXmaker configuration and selecting properties.

Configuring search fields

You must specify the search fields, or strings that will precede the recipient name, company and fax number strings. FAXmaker will search for these fields. For example if you specify To:, FAXmaker will look for the string 'To:', and when it finds it, take the text after the string and assume this is the name of the recipient. Likewise for the Company name and Fax number.

Configuring a delimiter

After FAXmaker has found the search field and retrieved the string that comes after the search string, it needs to know where the end of the search string is. For example, if you enter a name 'Richard Wenthrop' and more text follows on the same line, it needs to know that it should 'stop' after the name Richard Wenthrop. There are 2 ways in which you can indicate this:

  1. By not putting any more text on that line. FAXmaker will take the end of line as the delimiter.
  2. By adding a delimiter, which is a character, which identifies to FAXmaker that this is the end of the search string. Such a character can be # for example.

You can configure which character you wish to use as a delimiter.
