How do I send a fax from my A210 using the internal modem?

[GillianS]

I have an A210 laptop with Windows Vista Home Premium and Office 2007 Professional and use the wireless network card to connect to our broadband modem.

For my business I would like to be able to send faxes through the normal telephone line direct from my laptop, rather than buying a fax machine.
There is a Toshiba Software Modem attached to COM3, but I can't work out how to use it to send a fax.
On older computers I have been able to set up the fax modem as a printer driver and have sent faxes directly from Word using a print-to-fax option.
I can't find anything in the general Windows help or Word help that shows me how to do this on my laptop.

Any suggestions gratefully received.

Hi,

for that you need a extra software. Google for "fax software"
When you have installed a fax software you will have a printer device named fax ...

I hope this will help you

I use the The Zoom/Modem V.92 PC Card Plus on my Toshiba laptop - it is a 56K fax modem that plugs into the PCMCIA slot . Good performance and it has an on-board controller and Digital Signal Processor which is a nice feature. Also, has Modem on Hold so when you receive a fax or voice call, you don't lose your Internet connection. Hope this is helpful and good luck!
