You will see this screen.
This is the main RapidComm screen. To
send your first fax, keep this screen open.
(After this initial run, RapidComm will not
need to be running in order to send a fax.)
Sending Your First Fax
Using RapidComm, you can send and receive
faxes directly from your computer and
eliminate the need for an expensive fax
machine. Once you learn the basics of sending
faxes, you can learn more involved fax
functions, such as sending documents to
groups of numbers at assigned times and how
to transfer data files. These more advanced
functions are explained in the electronic
RapidComm manual on your Connections
CD. This chapter will walk you through
sending your first fax.
1.
Open an application in which you can
create documents that you might want to
fax (e.g., a word processing application).
Create a document containing only a
sentence or two. Name the document
“tester”. Keep the document open.
