Default Fax Server Location

I have a Brother MFC-9450CDN printer and would like to use it with
Windows Fax and Scan in Windows 7, but it is asking for the fax
server location, does anyone know what that would be?


Yes - it is a piece of computer equipment equipped with multiple fax
modems. It's doubtful you have one of these.

Otherwise - to use the "Windows Fax and Scan" you need a fax modem - your
multifunction printer probably will be of no use with this software. ;-)

Not enough specifics?

"Will my stand-alone fax machine or multifunction printer with fax
capabilities work with Windows Fax and Scan?

No. Windows Fax and Scan works with built-in and external fax modems but it
is not designed to work with stand-alone fax machines or multifunction
printers with fax capabilities. Some printer manufacturers might offer
drivers that allow your printer to function like a fax modem with Windows
Fax and Scan. For more information, contact your printer manufacturer."
