Print Fax

This Fax tool outputs a fax to a network or local printer. See Fax tools for more information.

Inputs

Fax Id

The identifier of the fax to be printed.

Printer Name

The name of the printer. For locally attached printers, this is the name of the printer listed in the Printers folder. For remote printers, this consists of the server name and the name listed in the Printers folder. For example, if you have a printer installed as HPLaserJet4M and the printer is actually attached to the CompanyPrintServer computer, then the full printer name is \\CompanyPrintServer\HPLaserJet4M.

Pagination

Shrink will resize each fax page to fit the printed page. If the fax page is larger than the printed page, any text or images in the fax will be reduced. Chop will remove any portions of each fax page that do not fit on the printed page. If the Spill option is selected, each fax page will result in as many printed pages as necessary to contain the original fax image at its original size.

Exit Paths

Success

The Success exit path is taken if the fax was queued for printing successfully.

Failure

The failure path is taken if there is an error queuing the print job. This can occur when a Fax ID is not valid. If an invalid printer name is supplied, this tool step will take the Success path, but an error will be logged in the NT Event Viewer.
