Zero admin fax serving with GFI FAXmaker for Networks/SMTP 10

GFI launches GFI FAXmaker for Networks/SMTP 10

London, UK, 16 September 2002 - GFI, developer of the market-leading FAXmaker fax server range, has launched GFI FAXmaker for Networks/SMTP 10. Version 10 builds on GFI FAXmaker's renowned ease of use by providing virtually zero administration fax serving - a feature administrators will appreciate.

GFI FAXmaker for Networks/SMTP is a network fax server that allows users to send and receive faxes from their desktops - either through the GFI FAXmaker client or using their email client, via GFI FAXmaker’s email-to-fax gateway.

Zero fax administration
Version 10 provides zero administration through a new rules-based interface that almost eliminates configuration and maintenance work for network administrators. Users are automatically retrieved from Windows 2000 or XP, fax clients can be automatically deployed, and the fax server can be remotely monitored and configured. For those using the SMTP email-to-fax gateway, all communication between server and client is via SMTP, making it extremely scalable.

Automatic application integration via NetPrintQueue2FAX
GFI FAXmaker for Networks/SMTP 10 introduces NetPrintQueue2FAX, a feature that can be used to automate faxing from any application. Users can embed a fax number in a document (for example, an invoice) and print to the GFI FAXmaker network print queue from anywhere in the network - the document is then faxed automatically without the user having to enter the fax number separately in the GFI FAXmaker fax form. With NetPrintQueue2FAX, users can also utilize the Microsoft Word mail merge feature to send fax broadcasts by merging a document to a database of fax numbers.

New fax client supports Outlook Contacts as phonebook
GFI FAXmaker for Networks/SMTP 10 includes a new fax client that can use the Outlook Contacts as the fax phonebook. This means users can maintain one address book for both email and fax contacts, making it easy for them to broadcast information to a number of people whether they have an email or a fax address.

Other new features
GFI FAXmaker for Networks/SMTP 10 also includes the following new features:

  • New fax viewer
  • Server can run on Windows XP or Windows 2000
  • Support for Windows XP clients
  • Support for the Windows 2000/XP modem drivers, resulting in much wider modem hardware support.

Standard GFI FAXmaker for Networks/SMTP features comprise a multi-line fax server, clients for Windows 95/98/ME and NT/2000/XP, print to fax driver for Windows, inbound fax routing, support for server-based rendering of Office documents, fax management features and more. Companies using GFI FAXmaker for Networks/SMTP include Shell Oil Lubricants, Daimler Chrysler, Kawasaki, NASA Goddard Space Flight Center - The Hubble Space Telescope Project, Panasonic Group and many others.

GFI FAXmaker for Networks/SMTP is cost effective with prices starting at just US$350 for 10 users. More product information and a free evaluation copy can be found at http://www.gfi.com/ffn.
