Please note, by default, AFax Server starts in a context of Windows NT Local System account that has an access to limited number of printers. In order to use some other resources available on the system (MAPI, ODBC, etc.), AFax Server service startup parameters need to be changed. Use Windows NT Services Control Panel to change AFax Server startup parameters. In the services list select “AFax Server” and select “Startup…”. Use Service Startup Type, to select when the service should start. By default, Automatic is selected, which starts the service every time the system starts up. Use Log On As property to change how the service should start. The default, System Account, allows you only limited access to printers. Select This Account and specify an account under which the AFax Server will run, and provide the service with more choices (for instance Administrator account).
