[lace-chat] Scanners
I was congratulating myself on having a scanner that worked until I switched it on - I'm making posters for the summer fair with a forties theme which is happening, hopefully, at the end of July in the care home where I work, and someone has given me a leaflet with wartime recipes. So thanks for the advice (can't remember who it was) to reboot the computer whilst the scanner is switched on. It worked.. So now I can copy, print and scan, but fax? Just the thought of trying to work out how makes my eyes water.

I only need to send a fax about twice a year, eg if I need to send my credit card details in hard copy, which I won't do, even in small chunks, by email. I installed Microsoft fax - only works with Win 95 and Win 98. We've probably got a fax program with the modem software, but I didn't want to risk upsetting what's already workig OK. I tried sending direct from Word, but that just wanted to try and send an email, even though I'd instructed to 'Send fax' and had all the correct details in the person's address in my address book. Then I tried the scanner. Worked a treat at this end. Very simple. Just selected 'Fax' for the scanning operation and followed the instructions. What arrived at the other end was almost illegible. Perhaps it needs to be sent at a very high resolution. Then I tried Windows Messaging. I couldn't see exactly what I'd sent from an appearance point of view, but it was very simple to do and the recipient said the fax arrived perfectly and looked very professional.

Re: [lace-chat] Scanners
Jean I had the same problem with trying to use the fax feature, perhaps I will also try from windows messaging. The more complicated and advanced things become the more they are prone to not complying with their features.

Re: [lace-chat] scanners
Must be something about scanners. Since the new year, our multi purpose machine, will scan, print, and copy but won't fax. Given that the line for the internet goes thru the machine, it makes one wonder why the line is fine to go online but not fine to fax something. David, just where is the best place to kick?

Re: [lace-chat] scanners
Whew!! Janice, sounds as if I had a narrow escape...imagine trying to solve your scanner problems via the email!!(Perhaps I should explain that I run a Help Desk for Lace 2000 and Janice is one of my customers!)

When I try to use it through the correct route it thinks that it is already being used so won't initialise (something like that), I have to mess about taking the lead out of the back and sticking it back in. It takes about 4 tries before it starts to warm up the lamp. However I just found out that when I scan a background into my Lace 2000 program it works usually on the first attempt. After that I can scan through my scanning program no problem. If I switch everything off for a couple of hours and go back in it seems to remember that it was working and continues through the regular route. I have complained to my pc guru (DS) but I usually have to bribe him with a meal for him to come round and then he just blames me and says its allergic to all that lace stuff I do!!
