Modems - Toshiba Satellite 110 Series User Manual

The printer doesn't print what I see on the screen.
Many programs display information on the screen differently from
the way they print it. See if your program has a print preview
mode. This mode lets you see your work exactly as it will print.
Contact the software manufacturer for more information.

Modems

A modem, fax/modem or fax/voice/modem is a serial device. This
section lists common modem problems.
The modem won't receive or transmit properly.
Make sure the RJ-11 cable (the one that goes from the modem to
the telephone line) is firmly connected to the modem's RJ-11 jack
and the telephone line socket.
Check the serial port settings to make sure the hardware and soft-
ware are referring to the same COM port (in Device Manager
under Modems for PC Card modems or in Hardware Setup or
TSETUP for an external modem).
Check the communications parameters (baud rate, parity, data
length and stop bits) specified in the communications program. It
should be configured to transmit at 300, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600,
14400 or 28800 bps (bits per second). Refer to the program's doc-
umentation and modem manual for information on how to change
these settings.
The modem is on, configured properly and still won't transmit or
receive data.
Make sure the line has a dial tone. Connect a telephone handset to
the line to check this.
The other system may be busy or off-line.
The PC Card modem used to work, but doesn't anymore.
Check in Device Manager to see if the modem is listed.
