If the Recipient Uses a Fax Machine and Scanner

Recipients who receive fax transmissions on paper at a fax machine must use a scanner to scan the image into their computer.

3D FaxSpeed Read Module for Recipients

To decompress and read your InfoImages, the recipient’s computer must have the 3D FaxSpeed Read Module Install Disk that you can create for them. (See Creating Read Module Disks for Recipients.)

For recipients of your InfoImage who are using a fax machine and scanner:

1The InfoImage is printed on the receiving party’s fax machine.

2Fax Machine / Scanner Requirements:

•The retrieved files are saved automatically in the Log file.

•Medium density format — If you sent the InfoImage in Medium density format, the recipient must scan the fax printout of the InfoImage into the computer using a 300x300 or 400x400 dpi scanner. For Twain-supported scanners, 3D FaxSpeed automatically will open the scanner application of the recipient’s choice. As the recipient scans each page, 3D FaxSpeed shows how many InfoImage blocks have been read and how many are still unread. 3D FaxSpeed will not accept a page from a different InfoImage.

•Low density format — If you sent the InfoImage in Low density format, the recipient can scan the InfoImage into the computer using a 200x200 or 300x300 dpi scanner.

If a recipient’s scanner is not Twain compatible, the InfoImage can be scanned by its scanner application, saved to disk as a file, and retrieved by 3D FaxSpeed using the Read from file option.

3After all the pages of the InfoImage have been scanned, 3D FaxSpeed automatically retrieves and decompresses the original files from the InfoImage and saves them in a Log file.

43D FaxSpeed then displays a list of the retrieved files and lets the recipient view each one in its appropriate application (if that application exists on the computer).

5In 3D FaxSpeed, the recipient must save the retrieved files.

NOTE: Even though the list of files and their content can be viewed, the actual files of the InfoImage are not saved unless they have saved to disk.
