Gone are the days of waiting in a long line for a fax machine at the office. Network fax servers are like a dream come true for those who rely on fax communications for business dealings. A network fax server faxes with the help of computer. Network fax servers consist of software working on selected computers that are connected to a company’s Local Area Network (LAN). Special circuit boards are connected to a telephone network for handling incoming and outgoing of faxes. Network fax servers help the organization take a step towards a paperless office.

Multiple users can read a single transmitted fax by sending it to a shared folder. Network fax servers can be relied upon to send and receive multiple faxes at the same time, using fax modems. Expensive fax machines are no longer required to send faxes. Network fax servers receive all the incoming faxes and automatically print them. Users are notified when faxes are received, and of the result of sent faxes. Most servers can support incoming and outgoing faxes on multiple modems. A network fax server can automatically forward faxes to a number of e-mail addresses, and also notify the client of received faxes.

With a network fax server on the desktop, sending, receiving, prioritizing and customizing faxes is easy. A network fax server can be use to fax documents straight from Microsoft PowerPoint, Excel or Word programs. It can also filter out unwanted junk mail. The main advantage of a network fax server is there is no need to print the document before faxing. Client can save or delete faxes, and attach incoming faxes to email, without using even a single piece of paper. A network fax server can usually work on Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows 2000, Windows NT, Windows XP, and a 2000 and 2003 server.

Each computer connected to the wireless network should have a wireless LAN card (also know as Wi-Fi adapter) installed. Wi-Fi adapters can be configured after installation of TCP/IP based networking on the...
