Testing FAX Functions

Test your modem’s fax capabilities by sending a fax to Multi-Tech or to a fax machine in your office.

Microsoft Fax is installed in Windows 95 as part of the Microsoft Exchange option. You can use Microsoft Fax to fax from within an application, such as a word processor, or to act as a stand-alone fax program. In the following procedure you run Microsoft Fax as a stand- alone fax program.

1.Click Start, Programs, Accessories, and then WordPad.

2.Create a message in WordPad, for example: This is a test of the

MultiModemZPX-PCI’s fax capabilities.

3.Save the file as ZPXTest.doc and exit WordPad.

4.Click Start, Programs, Accessories, Fax, and then Compose New Fax.

5.The Compose New Fax wizard appears. Click Next.

6.To send the file to your own fax machine or to another fax modem in your office, type the destination name and phone number in the To and Fax # boxes.

7.Click Add to List; then click Next.

8.Select a cover page; then click Next.

9.Type a subject line (e.g., MultiModemZPX-PCI Fax Test) and a note to go on the cover page; then click Next.

10.Click Add File. In the Open a File to Attach dialog box, select ZPX Test.doc and click Open. The ZPX Test.doc file is added to the Files to Send list box.

11.Click Next; then click Finish.

12.Microsoft Fax opens the ZPX Test.doc file in WordPad, prints it to the Rendering System, dials the recipient, and then sends the fax.

13.Exit Microsoft Fax when the Status dialog box displays that the fax was sent successfully.
