Default SC400 Automatic transmission change?

I recently was pasted down a 1992 Lexus SC400. I am approaching the 30,000 mile marker, and I want to change the automatic transmission fluid. I jacked up the car and found the drain, but now the question for me is, "Where do I add the new transmission fluid?" I looked at the engine compartment and noticed the dip stick where you check the level of the transmission fluid, but I am more than certain that is not where you add the new fluid. Also, how many quarts of oil would be needed, if I drained the oil from the drain, on the bottom of the vehicle? If any one can help me out, I would appreciate it.

2 quarts of ONLY toyota type t-iv fluid and the dipstick is where you would add the new fluid.

Let me get this right, you have a 1992 SC00 with only 30K miles on it? WTF?
