Summary

Equisys have only optimised the Zetafax client and Zetafax printer to work in a terminal services (application server) environment.

More information

We recommend that the Zetafax server is installed on another Windows computer accessible on the network and only the Zetafax client should be installed directly on the terminal server.

What should be installed where
