Introduction; What You Need To Use Your Faxmodem - Zoom 27575 Quick Start & Reference Manual

Introduction

Welcome to the world of USB faxmodems. A faxmodem
equipped with a Universal Serial Bus, or USB, means con-
venience, ease of installation, and high performance.
You can install your USB modem quickly, without both-
ering with a separate power supply or having to worry
about your computer's internal settings, as you might with
other types of external or internal modems.
Your USB faxmodem supports both the V.90 ITU Standard
and K56flex, the most widely used pre-standard 56K tech-
nology. This way, your faxmodem automatically selects the
fastest compatible connection speed. You'll find this fea-
ture particularly valuable if you frequently access different
sites.
This Quick Start and Reference Guide provides easy,
step-by-step installation instructions for your new USB
faxmodem.
