FASTFAX IV
FastFax IV is a memory resident utility which captures HP
Laserjet II (PCL 4) printer commands from within any application
and faxes the resulting document. This means that what you fax
will look the same as if you had printed it out on a HP Laserjet
printer. FAstFAx IV can be activated by a hotkey, printing to a
specific printer port, or a combination of the two. This will
allow you to print to a printer port for sending a fax and another
port for generating a hard copy printout.
While at the DOS prompt, type FASTFAX. Once loaded into
memory, FastFax IV can be used to send a fax or create a fax file
to fax at a later time. The command line and options are as
follows.
To use FastFax IV from within a DOS application, press the
activation hotkeys, ALT and '/' keys simultaneously (unless you
specified the /L# option). If the application provides printer
drivers, be sure to select the HP Laserjet II or PCL4 driver prior
to printing. If the application does not provide a driver for the
Laserjet II, select a generic or text printer. Now print the
document to be faxed from the DOS application in the normal manner
provided by that application. A short tone will sound as the
printing begins. After the document is printed, a short audible to
will sound as FastFax IV deactivates.
A dialog box will appear to allow you to specify to FastFax IV how
to proceed with the document just printed. Selecting the Phone
List button will display your Fax Phone List and allow you to
select a number or group of numbers from that list.
Fax options provided, allow you to Send the document now, or
at a scheduled time, Save the document to a file for a later
transmission with QL II Fax or both Send the document and Save it
to a file. After completion of the process the dialog will be
removed and you can resume your work in the application you were
using.
If you want to remove FastFax IV from memory, simultaneously
press the ALT and '=' keys.
