Fax Console
I have windws xp and my fax console is not responding for about the last two
months. It shows in the printer/faxes as ready, but when I try to fax from a word document or check the properties of the fax it shows "An attempt to connect to the fax printer failed. Check the fax printer connection and try again." hen the properties comeup with "The Microsoft shared fax driver printer driver is not installed on this computer. Some printer properties will not be accessible unless you install the printer driver." What drivers do I need, I thought I had them all installed. When I open the console it just shows refreshing in the status bar at the bottom. Any help is appreciated! |

Fax Console
State how you installed Windows XP Fax. State which analog fax modem from
the WHCL you configured it to use and how. You failed along the way somewhere. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "jaa" wrote in message ...

Fax Console
I can't remember how it was installed, as it has been installed for over 3
years. It has always worked fine, until I installed the Lexmark printer. If I try to go through the lexmark productivity console to set up the fax through there, it says i am missing the LXDFFAS.EXE. my modem is a BCM V.92 56k modem and appears to be fine in the device manner.

Fax Console
You seem to have identified your problem. Was there another question? AIO
devices are not supported by Windows XP Fax. Yours most certainly should not have disabled your fax modem, but it did. Your recourse is with Lexmark. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "jaa" wrote in message news I can't remember how it was installed, as it has been installed for over 3 years.
