Backward Compatibility

With some restrictions, the FaxPress server and client software is compatible with earlier
versions of the FaxPress client software.
Backward Compatibility with FaxPress Servers
FaxPress servers and FaxPress fax servers can work together on the same network, but
there are some restrictions to keep in mind:
FaxPress client software can only be used to access FaxPress servers; it cannot be
used to access the FaxPress. Only FaxPress clients can log into the FaxPress.
Advanced client features designed specifically for the FaxPress platform are
automatically enabled for use with the FaxPress and automatically disabled for the
FaxPress server line.
FaxPress servers running server software versions earlier than 6.x will need to
upgrade to be compatible with the FaxPress, the FaxPress client software.
FaxPress and FaxPress client software cannot operate on the same client system.
Before installing a new version of either the FaxPress or FaxPress client software,
be sure to uninstall any existing version of the FaxPress or FaxPress client software.
Backward Compatibility with Earlier Versions of FaxPress
There are some restrictions to keep in mind when using the newest version of the FaxPress
client software with older versions of FaxPress client software and server software:
The FaxPress client software will only support FaxPress servers running FaxPress 4.x
or above server software. The FaxPress client will not support FaxPress
servers running 3.x server software.
Although the FaxPress 3.x and 4.x clients can be used to access the new FaxPress
server for basic functions, known bug fixes and new user interface features will not
be available. The latest version of the FaxPress client is recommended for use with
the FaxPress server.
Note: See the Captaris Technical Support page for additional information on
backward compatibility.
