Sending Fax in XP is SLOW

[Sam]

Faxing works fine but it took me 18 minutes to send
a 6 page document. Can anybody help?

Not until you provide some clues.
Specify your configuration, including your modem.

My modem is a US Robotics 56K Win 1806 on Com 3. Configuration?? What excatly do you need to know?

[Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook]]

You can stop there. USR has a buggy modem with modem identification and
echo.
Try this:

1. Delete HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Fax\TapiDevices\<modem ID>

2. Open

HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D36E 96D-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE
10318}\<modem id>\Fax

and change the SetupCommand from:

"AT&F&B1&D2V1Q0E0S0=0&C1&H1&R2&I0X4&A3S7=255" to
"ATE0&F&B1&D2V1Q0E0S0=0&C1&H1&R2&I0X4&A3S7=255" (Just adding E0 to the setup
command).

Use the device again...

Russ,
Thanks for your help! Where do I go to delete HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Fax\TapiDevices\<modem ID>?

Its in the system registry; use the Registry Editor, Regedit.exe, to make
the necessary changes.
