Alcom LanFax Redirector 2.0 Enhanced With New Client-Server Features for
|
|
DOS, Windows and CAS Applications
|
|
|
|
NetWorld Boston '92 (Feb. 11, 1992) - Alcom Corporation, the leading
|
|
developer of fax server technologies, today introduced LanFax Redirector
|
|
2.0 for DOS, Windows and CAS applications, featuring a true peer-to-peer,
|
|
client-server based architecture. The new features for LanFax Redirector
|
|
2.0 include: HP PCL- 5 support for DOS applications, automatic printing of
|
|
incoming and outgoing messages, multi-line support and interpersonal
|
|
messaging capability.
|
|
|
|
LanFax Redirector 2.0 facsimile server software enables SPX/IPX and NetBlOS
|
|
local area network users to now fax professional looking documents in
|
|
real-time to any off-LAN recipient equipped with a facsimile machine or a
|
|
fax modem. Alcom has upgraded its LanFax server technology to provide:
|
|
support for up to 8 fax cards per server, automatic printing of incoming
|
|
and outgoing faxes, HP PCL- 5 to Group III conversion at the server for
|
|
DOS applications eliminating time delay at the workstation, built-in

|
III internal scalable fonts, HP cartridges A through Z and all softfonts.
|
|
|
|
"The LanFax Redirector 2.0 technology is based on a true client-server
|
|
architecture. When applied to fax servers this means less load on the
|
|
network, better security, real-time status of fax messaging, and faster
|
|
throughput since the fax is automatically routed directly out the fax
|
|
server without transiting through the file server," stated Jeffrey
|
|
Harrison, Alcom President.
|
|
|
|
LanFax Redirector 2.0 allows unlimited user access with up to 250
|
|
concurrent user connections per fax server. It also provides: support for
|
|
any number of fax servers on a LAN, password protection, remote
|
|
configuration and management of the fax server from any workstation,
|
|
international character and phone number support, automated handling of
|
|
long distance carriers and PBX's, configurable number of retries and retry
|
|
reasons, automatic and configurable cleanup of log entries at the fax
|
|
server and detailed audit trail of transmissions, which may be
|
|
incorporated into other software packages, such as spreadsheets, to create
|
|
management reports and billbacks.
