A.4 Release 2.2.00 Changes

Disk Space Limitation. The new Class 2 FAX modems, which CompuFax now supports, require bit mapped files in T4 format. These files can take up large amounts of disk space and can quickly fill up a disk, if they are allowed to queue unchecked.

1.The disk space limitation feature has been added to prevent the disk from getting filled up due to too many converted fax files being queued. The System Manager can now specify the maximum allowed disk space to be taken up by converted (T4 format) files. When this maximum has been reached, no more conversions will be allowed until the amount of space used drops below this limit. Disk space limitation may be turned off if not needed.

2.Deferred Conversion. This is another feature to help manage disk space. Conversion of a file into T4 format can either be done as soon as the fax file is entered into the queue, or conversion can be deferred until transmission time. Immediate conversion uses more disk space than deferred conversion, but reduces transmission delays.

3.Landscaping. This feature specifies that the document being sent is to be rotated sideways. This is useful when sending documents that are more than 8.5 inches wide. See $ FAX HELP SEND / LANDSCAPE for details.

A.5 Release 2.1.00 Changes

1.CompuFax now supports the use of Application Programming Interface (API) Class 2 FAX modems. The MultiTech MT224BAIF (International), the MT224BAF (domestic), MT1932ZDX (cheapest domestic) have been tested in house and are known to work with CompuFax. Users have reported all the MultiTech Fax modems have worked with CompuFax. A few other Class 2 modems have been reported to work. None of these have been tested and they are not recommended. Support for the Xerox 7033 Telecopier has also been added. The DEVICE command in the options file for any 7033 device should

include / DEVICE_TYPE= X7033 and a Class 2 FAX modem would include

/DEVICE_TYPE= CLASS_2. (Note: Support for Xerox Telecopiers has been removed as of Release 3.0.0.)
