This is not a question of settings. You must decide yourself what to do and there are various options. Asterisk is only responsible for the transport.<br/>
<br/>
You need to look at the following tasks:<br/>
- get the file or files into the asterisk box<br/>
- convert to a faxable tiff format<br/>
- generate a call file and put the tiff file where it belongs (but there are other methods)<br/>
- get fax report<br/>
<br/>
Of course, at first you must configure Asterisk to accept facsimiles, which depends on which technologies you need. But everything is nicely documented.<br/>
