Bidirectional Printing
When the fax you are using is connected by bidirectional communication, fax information is received from the fax automatically. You can therefore check the fax model name, options set in the fax, and current fax information.
If the connection is bidirectional, information set in the procedure described in "Unidirectional Printing" is ignored.

1.
From the [File] menu of the application software, select [Print].
The [Print] dialog box is displayed.
2.
Select the fax you want to use from [Printer].
3.
Select the [Special Features] preferences pane.
The [Special Features] preferences pane is displayed.
4.
Click [Printer Info].
The [Printer Info] dialog box is displayed.
NOTE
If the [Printer Info] dialog box is not displayed, check whether the fax is turned on.
5.
Check the printer information → click [OK].
Check the displayed fax name, whether department ID management is active, and the number of lines.
IMPORTANT
If the fax driver name displayed at the top of the [Printer Information] dialog box and the fax name displayed as [Name Retrieved from Printer] do not correspond correctly, you may not be able to use the functions of the fax correctly. If the names do not correspond, delete the fax you have added from the [System Preferences], and try adding it again. See "Adding a Fax from the System Preferences." For the driver name corresponding to your fax model, refer to the Readme file. For details on how to view the Readme file, see "Referring to the Readme File and Online Help."
