Using Central to send fax automatically

Does anyone knows how to use fax in central? what should concern about if implementing fax? Do I require any compatible fax software?
what about presentment target? what if the fax software that I am using is not in presentment target what should I do?
Basically, I am trying to send data directly using fax after the processing without any user intervention. How should I do it? Anything that I should aware of?
Please help!
Thanking in advance.

(The documentation for the ^fax command starts on page 150 in my version 5.5 manual.)
To the best of my knowledge - which could be flawed - using Central's capability to fax requires using one of the provided presentment targets. These support 8 different fax servers. One of them might work for some other software (but might require some modification to the .ics file).
As an alternative to using one of the (expensive) fax server packages that Central has targets for, you might consider doing what we plan on doing. We purchased a multi-port fax board (not inexpensive, either) that came with software that provides an API for using it. We will be writing our own VB program that takes the print file or pdf created by jfmerge, convert it to another format if necessary, and pass it to the fax software with the appropriate parameters (phone #, etc.).

  • How do you set up the stupid USB modem to send faxes?

    Just bought the stupid USB modem because my new G5 is so new and improved that it doesn't have a modem like my old G4. Naturally I was so pleased to spend extra money that I hastened to order a brand new USB modem from Apple. Aren't they smart? Eliminate minor product features and then sell them separately to gullible users.
    Well Apple's even smarter than I thought, because not only did they not include the modem on the new G5, the 'manual' doesn't actually tell you how to use it to send faxes. That guarantees you'll go to their website and maybe even buy more stuff.
    So, has anybody out there actually figured out how to make an Apple product work in spite of itself, or do I have to go to my local business store and buy a fax machine?
    PowerBook G5   Mac OS X (10.4.5)  

    Yes, I did what the manual said
    When I phone my fax line, I hear the fax squeal produced by the Mac, so I could get incoming faxes, but the modem isn't recognized as a printer so I can't send out faxes. Manual explains how to dial out, but seems to be talking about how to connnect to the Internet with a dial-up modem.
    Since you don't say what specific problem you are
    having,
    Have you gone to System Preferences > Print & Faxing
    Faxing> Set Up Fax Modem yet?
    Have you looked at "Mac OS Help" type Fax in search
    box - lots of info there.
    Hope this helps

  • Sending Faxes using internal modem and DSL

    I found that I can receive a fax, but I cannot send one. When I try and send one the internal modem tries to connect to the internet using "internet connect". It searches for a number to connect to the internet. Since I am using DSL now I don't have a phone number to dial into the internet. If I put my phone number in it calls me and gets a busy signal.
    Can someone tell me how I should be configuring the internal modem?

    From the Knowledge Base at
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.4/en/mh1797.html
    Sending a fax
    You can fax files directly from your computer to any fax machine or computer that is set up to receive faxes. If your computer has a modem that is connected to a phone line, it is automatically configured to send faxes.
    Open the document you want to fax.
    Choose File > Print.
    Choose Fax PDF from the PDF pop-up menu.
    Type the fax number of the user you want to receive your fax in the To field.
    You can also choose users directly from Address Book by clicking the Address Book button to the right of the To field. Be sure you have a fax number listed for each user you choose in Address Book. For more information about using Address Book, see Address Book Help, available in the Help menu when Address Book is open.
    If necessary, type the dialing prefix required for the phone system you're using in the Dialing Prefix field. (For example, if you need to dial a 9 to access an outside line, type 9 in the Dialing Prefix field.)
    If you want to send a fax through a modem other than your computer's built-in modem, choose it from the Modem pop-up menu.
    If you want to send a cover page with your fax, click the Use Cover Page checkbox and type a message in the Message field.
    If you need to change any of the preset faxing options, choose the type of options you want to change from the Fax Cover Page pop-up menu. (To see options for the application you're using, choose the application from the pop-up menu.)
    If necessary, select options for the type you chose. (For example, you can select the number of copies you want faxed if you chose Copies & Pages in step 8.)
    Tip: If you have a combination of options that you frequently use when faxing a document, you can save it as a "preset." After choosing your options, choose Save As from the Presets pop-up menu and type a name for the set of options. If you want to use this set of options when you fax a document, choose its name from the Presets pop-up menu.
    Click Fax.
    The fax is sent as soon as your modem is available. (For example, if you're using your modem to connect to the Internet, the fax is sent after you disconnect from your Internet service provider.)
    You may want to send your fax at a later time. For example, you may want to send it at night when telephone rates are lower. Just choose Scheduler from the Fax Cover Page pop-up menu, and enter the time. Make sure your computer is on, is not asleep, and is connected to your phone line at that time.

  • Sending FAX with attachments using in RightFax

    Hi,
    We are in CRM 7. and sending Fax using  RightFax - Rightfax through SMTP/SAP Connect configured.
    In case the outgoing Email in format html – attachment not sending through RightFax
    (Mail document class is MHT)
    I can see the mail with the attachment in SOST
    In case the outgoing Email in format text – attachment sent correcty.
    )Mail document class is RAW)
    It’s probably related to mail document class,
    But I didn’t  figure it out.
    Thanks,
    Liat

    For oracle8i there is an example package from OTN:
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/sample_code/tech/pl_sql/htdocs/Utl_Smtp_Sample.html
    You have to re-write the package a bit to work it with BLOBs instead of RAW attachments, but that should be no problem
    Hop this helps,

  • Sending fax using java API

    Hai,
    There is a requirement in one of the projects i am currently working, to send fax from the application to any fax machine in the world. I am now assigned
    the task of finding out how this can be done in java. I have been " googling " all day . All i could find are some vague comments on certain posts including this site:
    1) This could be done using the javax comm package ( i could not find any detailed explanation as how it could be done or sample code)
    2) Could be done by installing some certain software and using it.
    By my requirement is to send fax from within my application , not any third party applications. I also cant use the online services which come as the search result
    while i "googled".
    So can sending faxes be done from a java application using the standard java packages or any extensions? Could any one point me to a sample implementation ?
    Any pointers would be appreciated.
    Thanking u in advance,
    Martin Joseph

    In order to send fax from a java application you would first have to have a fax server setup. Which would receive files from your application and send it. Now how you utilize it depends upon the implementation of the server. There could be an API made available to you or it could be as simple as dropping your files to a certain folder or ftping them to a certain location on the server itself from where it picks them up and faxes them. So in short the implementation is a function of your server choice and whether you have one already, decide to use an existing one or find one publicly available on the net.

  • Please help: Problem sending fax to one recipient using Apple USB Modem

    Hello,
    I'm using an Apple USB Modem to send an receive faxes on my PowerMac G5. This is working great to the most recipients, but not one with a Philips fax machine.
    The problem is, that everybody can send faxes to him - except of me
    I'm using a software called Pagesender for this, I e-mailed the support and he told me, that the my fax is timing out and some of his customers have made positive reports of Zoom and Best Data Modems in cases where the Apple Modems have encountered line noise.
    Also the Tiger fax solution doesn't work ... The odd things are, that I could send faxes using a stationary fax machine and don't have problems to send faxes to others ...
    Is there really no solution for this.
    Best regards
    René

  • Sending faxes using Mountain Lion

    Is it possible to send faes directly from the computer using Mountain Lion.

    You would have to buy a fax modem compatible with your computer in order to send faxes. I have a fax modem with my printer that I use when I need to send one.
    You could do electronic faxes through a service, but I'm not familiar with those. They usually charge for that.

  • What software do I use to send FAXes from my IMAC?

  • How do I send faxes using OS 10.4 ?

    I am using airport to connect to a BT hub for broadband. So how do I send faxes. When I follow the instructions for faxing it says choose document >print>fax but then it asks me to set up modem which I cant & then just says error when I press fax button

    Many thanks Babowa,
    Your answer is that rare thing, a clear and understandable, sensible answer - something almost unheard of in the computing world which is full of utter, utter rubbish. Which is precisely why I needed to make the query in the first place.
    Yes it is the old 10.4.11 and I guessed it was because of the technical reasons you mention, but I had no way of finding it out for sure as the mac info on the computer just talks garbage at me and doesn't give that obvious explanation.
    The problem is really all about the appalling unavailability of proper information when and where you need it which all computer users constantly suffer from because software writers and their management are idiots.
    to communicate with this particular government department and I do not have an email azddress becaseu the departme4nt doesn't want anyone to communicate wiht it. So I can only send a fax - not an email. It is all very,very silly.
    And heres another silliness. the muddle of above is becasue I accidently pressed a key and then the menu bar wouldn't let me restore a deletion.
    design mac one, just a few weeks old and it is horrible.
