There should be a virtual printer called Print to Fax on your printer list. Selecting that and Print brings up a dialogue for inputting fax no. etc. Be warned, though, that it does not like spaces in the number. If the fax does not go, open up the log (you can open it while it is sending, if you like, from an icon on the dialogue page) where you will see what happened. A log file is written to your home directory called Tfaxnumber (T123456789 etc). When using it at first there may be permissions issues to sort out. > > I was able to send it thru command line (fax, efax), but not receive! I haven't tried it recently, but I think it was impossible on the last release that I had (Mdk 8.2 bundled). My isp offeres a fax receive by email service, which makes it unnecessary. I don't want to have to keep the modem active all the time for the incoming faxes - about 1 every 2 or 3 months. Anne
