• CONFIGURING YOUR FAX SOFTWARE

Before you can use your phone to send and receive fax calls, you must
configure your fax software so that it uses your phone as the active
modem (rather than your existing modem).
Many of the most popular fax programs should support multiple modems connected to a PC or laptop computer, including
Symantec WinFax Pro, Smith Micro Software HotFax (version 3.02 or newer), Castelle FaxPress, etc.
Note: Data or fax calls using your Nokia phone are possible only if your service provider supports digital data and fax service.
You may be required to subscribe to these services. Check with your service provider before attempting to send or receive faxes.
Select the correct modem
Each fax application typically has a setup menu that can be used to alter the settings for your modem, as well as define how and
when calls are to be received (for example: immediately, on the third ring, etc.). This menu may also provide you with a list of
available modems that you can use when sending and receiving fax calls.
