7-4Using an Internal Modem (available on select models)

■Fax speed—Fax communication software enables the modem to send and receive faxes at 14,400 bps.

■Installing and loading fax communication software—

❏Install no more than one fax application. If more than one fax application is installed, conflicts may occur because all fax applications use similar files.

❏When some fax applications are loaded, their fax drivers may disrupt other modem functions. If you experience problems with the modem after installing your fax application, the drive may need to be unloaded from memory. Refer to the fax application documentation for information about unloading the driver.

■Sending a Fax—

❏Opening the fax application loads the application fax driver and prepares the modem to send the fax.

❏If you prepare the fax in another application, you may need to select your fax driver from within the Print Setup menu of that application.

■Receiving a Fax—For the modem to receive a fax, a fax driver must be loaded and the fax application must be open.

❏If you have enabled auto receive within your fax application, opening the application loads the fax driver and prepares the modem to receive a fax.

❏If you are using a Windows fax application, you can receive a fax while using another application by opening, then minimizing, the Windows fax application.
