Using QuickDraw GX with Express/Fax Modem
 
In order to send faxes using QuickDraw GX, you need a QuickDraw GX modem driver. A QuickDraw GX modem driver for the Express/Fax modem will be available later this year. If you have installed QuickDraw GX, you'll need to turn it off temporarily in order to use your Express Fax/Modem.  

To turn off QuickDraw GX temporarily:
 
1. Hold down the space bar while you choose Restart from the Special menu to
   restart your PowerBook.
 
The Extensions Manager dialog box appears on the screen.
 
2. Click the QuickDraw GX extension to remove the check beside it.
 
This prevents the QuickDraw GX software from loading.
 
3. Click the close box in the Extensions Manager dialog box to resume startup.
 
Your fax modem should work normally. You wonÕt be able to use any QuickDraw GX
features until you turn the extension back on again.


Auto-answer setting

If Fax Terminal is set to Auto-answer, the Manual Receive is disabled.


Using Express Modem with System 7.5.

This Express/Fax Modem software is fully compatible with System 7.5.

IMPORTANT  If you are using System 7.5, you can still use the shortcut for choosing Fax Sender by holding the Control and Shift keys while choosing Print from the File menu. The menu item no longer changes from Print to Fax, but the shortcut works as before. The same applies to Page Setup and Fax Setup.


Troubleshooting

If you experience unknown system crashes while using Express Modem with the PowerBook 500 series, set the Speaker setting to Modem sound always off .

To turn off the modem sound:

1. Open the Express Modem Control Panel.

2.  Select Express Modem Settings in the  Express Modem Settings/Status pop-up menu.

3. Select Modem sound always off in the Speaker pop-up menu.

4. Click the close box in the Express Modem Control Panel.

Fax V.17 (High Speed) reception

Some fax machines may not work well with the high-speed (V.17) fax capabilities of Express/Fax Modem. If you find you are having problems sending or receiving a fax, try turning off the V.17 option in the Fax Terminal Preferences dialog.
