Fax Software
Hello,
We have a network with XP machines. We currently use WinFax Pro (multi-user version) to receive and forward incoming faxes. We also use it to send faxes from a couple workstations. The problem is that we have constant trouble with the software. I've tried every tweak under the sun to get it to work consistently. Sometimes it will for a couple days, and then without warning, it will either freeze during an incoming fax or lose the modem, etc. Is there a better fax software that someone would recommend? It would have to handle receiving and forwarding incoming faxes, as well as faxing from other networked workstations. We really need a more consistent solution. Thanks |

(snipped a quote from another,apparently irrelevant, thread) I'm a little uncertain of your intent. If you merely want to copy a paper document just use the fax/copier's copy function. If you want to use the fax/copier as a substitute for a printer or scanner you will need a combination fax/modem on your computer. Such devices WERE common when more computer users were using the DIAL UP modem function of the combination boards. Since so many people now use broadband, computer manufacturers now usually omit the combination fax/modem and instead install Ethernet Network Interface Cards (NICs) or the equivalent circuitry on the computer's motherboard. NICS don't normally include FAX capability. Even if you have a fax/modem in the computer you will probably need a separate phone line for each device. If instead you had a Multi Function Device (MFD) it would have a port for connection directly to the computer and could serve as Fax machine, copier, scanner AND printer. Color capabilities for scanning and printing functions vary depending on model. Fax is normally 200 DPI black and white. |
