Receiving a fax
You can choose to receive a fax automatically, manually, or through an answering machine.
Note: For your All-In-One to receive a color fax, the machine from which you are receiving must also support color faxes.
Automatically
Recommended for a dedicated fax line
Your All-In-One automatically accepts incoming faxes using the
automatic answering mode. When the Auto Answer light is on, the
All-In-One receives a fax after the specified number of rings set in
the Options menu.
To set a number of rings for the automatic answering mode:
When the number of rings that you set is detected, the All-In-One automatically receives your fax.
Manually
Recommended for a shared fax and telephone line
You can choose which incoming faxes to accept by setting your All-In-One to manual answering mode.
The All-In-One receives your fax.
Answering machine
Recommended for a shared fax and telephone line
To receive a fax with an answering machine
connected to your All-In-One, set the answering machine to answer
incoming calls before the All-In-One does. For example, if you set the
answering machine to answer calls after 3 rings, set the All-In-One to
answer calls after 5 rings.
When a ring is detected, the answering machine picks up the call.
Note: You must set up the equipment as shown in connecting to an answering machine.

Hello. Make sure that the fax software is already installed in the computer. There should be a fax object in Printers and Faxes/Printer/Printers and Devices(for Windows) or in Print and Fax(for Macintosh). If there is, when you send a fax from the computer, make sure to use the correct print object which is for the fax. If driver is not installed, reinstall the software.

Hello. The fax driver can be installed using the installation cd that came with the printer. I don't think it's available for download though. Most of Lexmark's scan and fax drivers can only be installed using the installation cd. If you don't have the cd, you can call Lexmark for assistance with that. They may be able to send you the installation cd. Good luck!
