A TCP/IP network facsimile system built from publicly available software
Chane L. Fullmer, Brent Auernheimer, William L. Morris · 1992
A network desktop facsimile system was developed from inexpensive hardware and publicly available software. This system allows users on a TCP/IP network to develop documents and have them FAXed without printing out the document and using a manual FAX machine. The desktop facsimile system also receives FAXes. Schemes for electronic routing of incoming FAXes are outlined. The system is written in C and uses TCP/IP network protocols. Existing standards, system development and integration of publicly available software are discussed.
