Netweaver and Fax Devices

Hello All,
A client I am working with is under the impression that a netweaver product is able to talk directly to a fax device(Fax Modem, or Brooktrout Fax Board).
From my experience a third part product is required to handle the document faxing.  A likely products is RightFax.
Can anyone prove or deny this?
Thanks
David Cooper

Hello David,
just this week I connected our CRM WebAS 6.20 to RightFax. AFAIK also with Netweaver (WebAS => 6.40) you have to use a 3rd party product to FAX out from SAP. Configuration is done via SM59 for the RFC Destination and SCOT for the Message routing.

  • HP Print to Fax Device not installed

    I have recently updated to windows 8.1.
    This has seen me have a few issues with my HP Laserjet Pro 500 MFP M570dw printer driver.
    I updated the driver and had a few issues, which were solved by the HP Scan and print doctor tool.
    However in the printer devices window there used to be a printer device which was for normal printing and then the was a device the I could use to fax straight from my applications.
    This fax device is no longer installed for some reason.
    If any one can help me install this device again I would be most greatful.
    Thanks

  • Laser Jet M1217nfwMF​P wireless and fax stopped working printer works with usb cord

    I have an HP computer 64 bit version.  The printer suddenly stopped working wireless, fax stopped working weeks ago.  Printer does work with a usb cord.  Turning it off (removing elec cord) on both computer and printer, didn't help.  Nothing changed that was different to cause either problem.

    Hi agueda
    I see that your Laserjet M1217 wireless and fax stopped working but the usb connection does work.
    I would restore the printers defaults to setup the wireless again.
    Touch the setup (wrench button) on the printer, select network config, select restore defaults.
    Then make sure the wireless radio is turned on.
    Touch the setup button (wrench), network configuration, wireless menu, wireless radio-on.
    Temporarily connect the usb cable from the printer to the computer and go to start, all programs, hp, laserjet m1217 and select wireless configuration and go through the wizard to reset up the wireless again.
    or if your router has a wps button on it then you touch the wps wireless button on the printer and immediately touch the wps button on the router.
    Printer should automatically connect to the wireless network.
    Run the add printer wizard.
    Go to control panel,(win7) devices and printers then click add a printer, next, select network
    highlight printer, next, message installing printer.
    Should be able to print over  wireless again.
    Check  fax connections.
    Then run a fax test.
    Touch the setup (wrench button) on the printer, service, run fax test.
    You should have 4 passes.
    Change these fax settings on the printer.
    private receive-wrench/fax setup menu/ok/fax receive setup/ok/private receive/ok/set it to off
    error correction-wrench/arrow to fax setup/ok/all faxes/error correction/ok/set it to off/ok

    Try sending and receiving a fax.

  • Scanner and fax problems with the Officejet 7410 AIO

    Hi
    I have Windows 7 SP1 Ultimate 64 bit and I installed the basic drivers for the network of the Officejet 7410 AIO printer and I checked that all its functions worked properly.
    Now, the functionality of the scanner and fax do not work more as in the "Devices and Printers" not appear more their relative icons. How come? How do I install them manually?
    Thanks
    Bye

    Hi balubeto,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I see that you are having scanning, and faxing problems with your HP Officejet 7410 on Windows 7 SP1.
    I would recommend the following:
    Run the HP Print and Scan Doctor, to diagnose the issue.
    Uninstall the software. Uninstalling the Printer Software.
    Re-install the software using the HP Printer Install Wizard for Windows.
     Hope this helps, and have a great day!

  • Can a Mac Pro (2.66 ghz duel core) be upgradable to support Thunderbolt displays and other devices.

    Can a Mac Pro (2.66 ghz duel core (4cores)) be upgradable to support Thunderbolt displays and other devices. Does this need to be done through the Graphics card expansion or a additional card to be inserted?

    No. There is no way to upgrade any Mac Pro older then the cylindrical 2013 Mac Pro to ThunderBolt.
    The requirements of Thunderbolt require a totally redesigned motherboard and chip set rather any plugin cards. These motherboard were never developed for older Mac Pros.

  • Payment Advice Issue- Print and fax at the same time

    Hi,
    Currently payment advices are being sent to business partners (vendors) thorugh fax/email.   This is because process module Z_SAMPLE_PROCESS_00002040 is active in the system.  
    What I want to do is to be able to also print the payment advices even if vendor has communication data in the master data.  Program RFFoEDI1 is used with a custom form.   IDOCS are sent correctly to bank and remittance advices are faxed to vendor successfully.   With business wanting hard copies of remittance advices, when I try to reprint after first payment run is done and faxes sent running RFFOEDI1 and the payment document number, system says no records selected.   I searched in OSS and all the notes related to this issue are already in our system. 
    I have tried hard to solve this but no luck even I have done this before with other print programs but no RFFOEDI1.  One option is to remove the fax/email addresses from vendor which allows me to print but client does not want to remove fax numbers from vendor master. 
    Any suggestions will be appreciated.

    Look into BTE 2050, through which you could possibly e-mail an additional copy to a generic company e-mail as back up electronic filing of RA. And then you can print it if need to print them on Adhoc basis

  • Sample rate off the audio input and out devices do not match - what to do?

    This is fundamental, I know, but nevertheless I can't find my way around it. I get this error message when trying to recor:
    Sample rate off the audio input and out devices do not match
    and am asked to do this:
    Use the appropriate operating system or audio device control panel to adjust the sample rates of the input and output devices to use the same settingt.
    I have defined the sample rate to 44.1/16 bit in accordance with my inbuild soundcardt.
    I am trying to record from LineIn.
    When running on a M-Audio sound card I don't face any problems.
    HP 8560W, sound card IDT/High definition audio Codec
    Any suggestions?
    Knud

    You're sure you have set BOTH the input and output settings to 44.1 16 bit?
    Which version of Windows are you running?  There are a number of posts on this forum about how to fully access both the Windows Mixer and the Mixer for your soundcard.  Especially, you need to ensure that all "Windows Sounds" are turned OFF.

  • "Deleted items: Synchroniz​e deleted items between this mailbox and my device?" questions

    When I log into the BIS site for Sprint, it gives me the option at the bottom that says
    "Deleted items: Synchronize deleted items between this mailbox and my device." at the very bottom
    What does this really mean? I am confused because when you delete an email off the blackberry, it gives you 3 options, delete from "mailbox & handheld," "handheld," and "cancel".
    So, if I have the "Deleted items: Synchronize deleted items between this mailbox and my device." clicked...does that mean when I just choose delete from "handheld" only, it will STILL delete the email from my actual "mailbox" too?
    I don't want it to delete the email from my "mailbox" if I choose to delete from "handheld" only on my blackberry
    Does anyone know more about this?
    Thanks guys

    in my opinion :
    if you choose to delete on device only, it will never delete on your server.
    but best is you to try for one test message and you'll know for sure. And tell us.

  • Question about bluetooth communication between PC and mobile device

    I am a newbie of bluetooth communication. This time I need to have connumication between PC and mobile device (mainly mobile phone) by sending strings. PC is acted as server and mobile device act as client.
    For using bluetooth in PC, I use bluecove 2.0.1
    I have already connected them successfully.
    When I want to send strings between them, it is found that it can only do one cycle of communication (client -> server -> client).
    For my design, they can communicate multiple times.
    I simulate the core class of the system, the performance is fine.
    Cound anyone help me to watch the code and give me some advices?

    i haven't worked with devices but only with the toolkit emulators;
    it definitely is possible...
    u have to send the image as a bytestream and receive the image at the jsp end...
    and then reconstruct the image.
    the Stream classes in J2ME AND J2SE are all u will require.
    also the Image class.
    i have not done this but i have successfully sent an image frm a jsp and displayed it on the emulator.

  • Can I use one itunes account for multiple users and multiple devices

    Can I use one itunes account for multiple users and multiple devices?

    The iTunes EULA, as I understand it (I'm not an attorney )for Apps is basically that one person can use an App multiple devices, or multiple people can use an App one device..so one to many or many to one, but not many to many....

  • How can I quickly view pdf files like I can do with Windows Picture and Fax viewer for jpg files?

    How can I quickly view pdf files like I can do with Windows Picture and Fax viewer for jpg files? I need to look at several thousand PDF files. It takes too long to open each one individually. The only thing I could think of is combining them into large groups and then using the Navigation index. But I like the way windows Picture and Fax Viewer does it because you can keep the files separate. Combining PDFs causes loss of individual file names. That would be a problem since I do need to have the individual file names.

    Windows Picture and Fax Viewer is a DLL and is started via a rundll32.exe call and can't be set as an application to handle images in Firefox 3 and later versions.
    Try to set Windows Picture and Fax Viewer as the default viewer in Windows, then it should be listed automatically in the Mozilla Firefox Browse dialog.

  • Selective use of iCloud with multiple laptops, multiple iPods and iOS devices?

    I haven't brought my MBP13 to Lion yet.  I do have an MBA that runs Lion.   I have hesitated to take the MBP to Lion and set up iCloud because I just don't understand what the options are for selective "sync" of various sorts of data among one or more Macs, their iPods and iOS devices.   The material I can find so far does not in any way make it clear to me in advance what sort of selectivity will be offered if I turn on iCloud.
    Aside from that my DSL connection does not offer a stellar download rate, and I live in a dead zone for cellular signals,  so I do not operate in an "always on" state.   I turn on my laptop's WiFi or plug in an ethernet cable a few times a day and similarly might turn on a mobile device a few times.   Past that, I'm offline.  I've lived like that with my Apple gear for 30 years and that's just how it is for people in rural areas of the USA.
    All or most of my so-called "syncs" are the manual sort.  I pick out what info I want on any device and drag it there after connecting the devices.  If something I want on a mobile device can't be dragged there, or the alternative dread "sync" doesn't offer enough selectivity, I just settle for not having whatever that item is on whatever that device is, assuming I can't figure out a way to hammer the system into letting me get it on there (like temporarily adding movies to my main library from a separate library and external drive,  then drag to the iPad, then eject the iPad and delete the movie listings from the main library to reduce the clutter again).
    So.    I don't  keep ALL of my various types of data (mail, music, movies, notes, PDF files, app data) on ANY of my devices.  I couldn't make them fit,  and I wouldn't want them all on everything anyway.    I don't always even keep any mail setups on a particular mobile device.  I might have one there for a particular time frame, say over a weekend,  and then disable or delete it.   That works fine for me.  I shudder to think what would happen if I had an iCloud setup and did that.  I have visions of my entire mail setup on one of my laptops being deleted if I delete it from an iOS device...
    Beyond unwanted deletion?   Unwanted addition!   The last thing on earth I would ever want to do is set up iCloud and then find out that it wants to stash hundreds of GB of movies, hundreds of PDFs, thousands of music tracks, etc., on, say, my original iPhone that I still use as a WiFi device and occasionally add a few tracks of music to, or change up its playlists.  Not to mention what would happen if it tried to stash all my stuff on some unsuspecting little iPod touch used just for audiobooks.
    I am afraid that iCloud will work like the dread "transfer purchases" thing works now.  The "transfer purchases" doesn't let me say WHAT purchases to transfer.   There's no way I want a movie I have managed to take from a secondary iTunes library onto an iPad transferred "back" to my iPhone or my MBA or to ANYTHING just because I turn some device I own in order to check the weather.   Maybe I never purchased that movie on the iPad.  Just because it's not on the main library any more doesn't mean I want it to be there, either.
    So how can find out ahead of time how iCloud is going to work for someone with lots of different types of data on several laptops where all the so-called "syncs" at present are as manual as I have been able to make them?   
    Or can someone just tell me hey you know what,  iCloud is not designed for you,  just don't go there.   
    Either way I'll be grateful for some help here.  Sure I can clone my laptops and then back up all the iOS devices and copy those backups to externals, and then turn on iCloud and hammer on my stuff for two days to see what happens.  But why should i do that if someone can say up front that iCloud is or is not set up for highly selective sync options?

    iCloud does not sync movies or general files, so that problem doesn't arise.
    iCloud will:
    Sync Calendars
    SyncSafari  Bookmarks (though not display them on the iCloud website)
    Sync Contacts
    Sync photos added to or taken on one device onto other devices
    Access @me.com email
    Sync iWork documents only between your Mac and iOS5 devices - automatically from iOS devices by by dragging individual documents from a Mac to the iCloud website (and the cannot be re-downloaded until they have been edited on an iOS device)
    Each of these can be turned on or off on each device; you cannot selectively sync within one data type - i.e. it's all or no Contacts, not a selection, and so on.

    I have an Iphone 4s and i can't make a connection to my mac and other devices via bluetooth! Why is this a problem and how can i repair it?

    "I have an Iphone 4s and i can't make a connection to my mac and other devices via bluetooth! ":
    That is correct.
    "Why is this a problem and how can i repair it?"
    Becasue this has never been a feature of iphone/ipod/ipad.  There is nothing to repair.

  • I have two apple ID passwords and two devices when I try to use my account/password it asks for the other account that I don't have the password to. Can update or buy anything. Can you help ?

    I have one computer and one iTunes library and two devices hooked up to it. But I have to apple IDs a different one for each of the two devices. When I try to buy or update something using my account and password it asks for the other account password so I can buy or update anything. I can log into this website using my accountant it recagnizes me but i still can't get it to work on the App Store . I don't know I'f this matters but I just updated to iOS 6 and then tried it and it wouldn't work. Before I updated it , when I would try to get an app or something it would still  ask me for the other password , but if I pushed cancel then it would ask me do mine and then it would work , but it doesn't do that anymore. If I push cancel it just cancels and does nothing. I hope you can give me some suggestions, I really need your help:)
