PageSender Help

When PageSender Fax Center is running, it can answer the phone to receive faxes. Select Preferences from the PageSender Fax Center menu and press the Receive button to set up the receive preferences.

Note: Close the Preferences window or switch to the Fax Center window for your changes to take effect. It may take a few seconds for the status bar to indicate PageSender is "Waiting to receive" after you've turned receiving on.

Receive faxes after X ring(s)

Check this box to activate receiving faxes. Enter the number of rings to wait before the fax modem answers. If you enter a value outside the range 1-9, the number will be adjusted to fit in that range.

Launch PageSender Fax Center at login

PageSender Fax Center must be running in order to receive faxes. If you would prefer PageSender Fax Center to automatically launch when you log in, ensure this box is checked after you have checked the "Receive faxes" box described above.

When a fax is received

The checked actions are performed after a fax is received by PageSender Fax Center.

Notify me

If this is checked, the PageSender Fax Center icon in the Dock will "bounce" when a fax is received. To stop the "bounce", activate PageSender Fax Center.

Open in PDF viewer

If this is checked, received faxes will be opened in your default PDF viewer. This will occur in the background so as not to disrupt your current work.

Print to:

If this is checked, received faxes will be printed to the printer selected in the popup. This allows PageSender to behave like a regular fax machine, printing faxes immediately as they arrive. Note: We do not recommend choosing PageSender as the printer. Please choose a physical printer or do not choose this option.

Send Email to:

If this is checked, an Email will be sent to the specified address(es) with a subject of [PageSender] N page fax from: SENDER, where N is the number of pages and SENDER is the station number of the sending fax device. Enter addresses in the form of Full Name <email@address.com>, or simply email@address.com, separated by commas.

Enclose fax file with Email

If this is checked, PageSender will enclose the received fax file (in PDF format) in the Email notification. This allows the receiving computer to forward all incoming faxes to Email.

Run AppleScript:

In case we don't support your favorite received fax option, you're welcome to create your own using AppleScript. Check this box then press the Edit button to view our sample script. Edit that script to suit your needs then save it.

Note: The received fax AppleScript is located at: /Library/Printers/PageSender/Scripts/Received Fax.scpt. It must be saved as a data fork script (lowercase compiled script in Script Editor's Save As... Format pop-up menu).

Save faxes to:

Choose the folder to which incoming faxes are saved. Faxes saved to this folder will not be deleted by PageSender, even when deleted from the Fax Center list.

Use Hot Key to answer faxes manually:

To establish a system-wide Hot Key to answer faxes manually without switching to PageSender Fax Center, select this checkbox. To change the key combination for the Hot Key, press the button and select a new key combination.
