International ClassH04M 011/00AbstractDisclosed is a system having a Multi-Functional Peripheral Device with a FAX transmitting facility attached to a local computer, and a compatible FAX receiving facility, with an attached printer, accessible remotely from the computer. The local computer sends a command to the local FAX transmitting facility causing it to connect to the remote FAX receiving facility. The computer then sends data to the local FAX facility, which sends the data to the remote FAX facility where it is printed on the printer. Both FAX facilities use a FAX transmission protocol, CCITT Group 3, however, they use the Non-Standard Facility (NSF) within CCITT Group 3 to transfer the file without converting it into a graphical image format.Other References
