View Full Version : Can't send fax

On my Dell Dimension I have a program called Phone Tools which I have been
using to send faxes – Word docs, etc..

If I want to send a .pdf document I usually open the document and then
choose Capture Fax BVRP as the printer and send it that way.

Now if I want to send a fax using Phone Tools, when I get to Finish there is
a message that says there is a Printer error. I can go into Help and it also
allows me to debug. In debugging I see the following (The line that starts
with WordBasic.FilePrintSetup and mentions Capture FAX is highlighted in
yellow.):


(General) TmpDDEE

Private sub TmpDDE()
WordBasic.FileOpen “C:\Documents and Settings\Mary\My Documents\Lupe Visa
Letter
WordBasic.FilePrintSetup “Capture Fax BVRP on p”, DoNotSetAsSysDefault:=1
WordBasic.FilePrint 0
WordBasic.DocClose 2
WordBasic.FilePrintSetup “”
End Sub


Also, I used to be able to choose Capture Fax as a print option from Word,
etc but it no longer appears.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I'm afraid this had nothing whatsoever to do with Windows XP Fax.

Well, I guess that I haven't been able to find Windows XP Fax... There is no
mention of it in Help or in any of the searches I have done. However, I did
solve my problem. I read that problems sending faxes can result if the
graphics are complex - which mine were. Once I tried faxing a plain text
document the software worked just fine which at least let me know that I had
not damaged anything.

Fine. My point was that this is a group to support Microsoft Windows XP
Printing and Faxing applications. Questions regarding third party
applications need to be directed to those manufacturers because you'll not
likely find people familiar with them here.
