How are you sending the fax using the PrintSDI sample? Are you using
File->Fax or File->Print, because if you are using File->Fax then you are
actually using the local printer to send the fax and not the remote printer.
So check if your local printer is present or not. If is present try printing
a document to the loca printer and see if it works fine.
