i have a problem, i need to send fax’s so do i need to buy a fax machine or can i use my pc, ifso how do i do it thanx

Every time i try to send a fax from my computer using windows fax service it tells me that there is no answer. I have the Modem sound turned on and can hear the connection being made for about one second and then the fax monitor disconnects and says there was no answer. But i heard it answer, is there something wrong with my computer, is there a setting i can change that will make the fax work? Can Anyone help

I’ve asked my boss and was told I can say whatever i want… All my fax cover sheets have my name on it and they say account accoordinator. but, what I do is I work for a attorney services office. I make calls, make sure where supoenas get served.data entry. Faxing, I file and cover the switchboard while the receptionist is on brake. So I’m not dealing with money at all. So would this be considered Customer Service? Or office support or something?

I moved from the US to Spain about a year ago. Shortly before I moved, I bought a PC and a laptop from Dell (I didn’t know I was moving at the time). The laptop works fine over here, I’m using a simple power adapter, no voltage converter. The PC is still in the US, and I’m preparing for it to be sent over, but what else does it need for it to work?

Again, it’s a little over a year old (though barely used) and it has US power cables. It’s a Dell Inspiron 530 series Desktop. I have called Dell, and some have said it’s as simple as switching out the power cable, others have said that Dell does not endorse using your PC in another country. (Whatever). So what do I need to know? Please note I don’t have access to view the power supply inside the unit right now, as I’m in another country.

In addition to the unit, I also have a monitor that uses a power supply cable similar to the unit, a printer/scanner/fax/copier/phone that has an inbuilt cable made by Brothers, and an external HD. Will any of these need voltage converters? Can I get away with using an adapter and a US surge protector to use them all from one power supply? What do I need to know??

I appreciate all the help! Thanks!!

I have no Fax machine and I’d like to send and receive Fax from my Computer. So, name those softwares and tell me please how I can download those programs for free.

Thanks.

I drew a table and I am entering in info to make a fax cover sheet, when I hit the tab key to tab over it duplicates the cell. How can I get rid of that and just tab over??

I have a canon mp830 and it is connect to my pc I assume. Please take me through the connection process.

I was just contacted by a con artist. Do I ignore it or contact someone… Here’s the letter

Vous êtes invité :: VERY URGENT AND CONFIDENTIAL

Heure: 9h 00 – 10h 00 (GMT+00:00)
Rue: TOP SECRET REMITTANCE OF .2 MILLION USD ATTN.PLEASE I am Mr Ibrahim Zongo. I work with the African development bank (A.D.B) in Burkina Faso republic I saw your contacts in INTERNET SEARCH, after much consideration I decided to write you since I cannot be able to see you face to face at first. I will like you to take your time to read this mail carefully. I did not mean to embarrass you with my business proposal but I seriously need your assistance. Please this is a confidential matter and it requires urgency. In my department we discovered an abandoned sum of .2m (FIFTEEN MILLION, TWO HUNDRED THOUSAND UNITED STATES DOLLARS). In an account that belongs to one of our foreign customer who died along with his entire family into the World Trade Centre on September 11, sept 2001 (AMERICA ATTACK). Since we got information about his death, we have been expecting his next of kin to come over and claim his money because we cannot release it unless some body applies for it as next of kin or relation to the deceased as indicated in our banking guidelines and laws, but unfortunately we learnt that all his supposed next of kin or relation died alongside with him at 11, sept 2001 (AMERICA ATTACK). Leaving nobody behind for the claim. The owner of this account is Mr JOSEPH. F. GRILLO, foreigner and he is the Manager Of petrol chemical service, a chemical engineer by Profession. He died in world trade centre as a victim of the September 11, 2001 Incident that befall the United State of America, the bank has made series of efforts to contact any of the relatives to claim this money but without success, I now decided to make this business proposal to you and release the money to you as the next of kin or relation to the deceased for safety and subsequent disbursement since nobody is coming for it and I don’t want this money to go into the bank treasury as unclaimed bill. The banking law and guideline here stipulates that if such money remained unclaimed after Ten years, the money will be transferred into the bank treasury as unclaimed bill, I therefore agree that 40%of this money will be for you as foreigner partner, in respect to the provision of a foreign account, 10% will be set aside for expenses incurred during the business and 50% would be for me. There after I will visit your country for disbursement according to the percentages indicated. Therefore, to enable the immediate transfer of this fund to you as arranged, you must apply first to the bank as relation or next of kin to the deceased indicating your bank name, your bank account number, your private telephone and fax number for easy and effective communication and location where in the money will be remitted. I will not fail to bring to your notice that this transaction is hitch-free and that you should not entertain any atom of fear as all required arrangements have been made for the transfer. You should contact me immediately as soon as you receive this letter. Trusting to hear from you immediately. FROM THE DESK OF MR. IBRAHIM ZONGO, BILL & EXCHANGE MANAGER, IN AFRICAN DEVELOPMENT BANK OUAGADOUGOU BURKINA FASO . PLEASE FILL FREE TO CONTACT ME VIA THIS EMAIL ADRESS (mribrahim1@hotmail.fr ).

When I send a fax, should the cover sheet scan first or last?

A. print the original using a laser printer, make two copies for yourself using a copy
machine, and then fax one copy to the customer.
B. use a 24-pin dot matrix printer with multipart carbon paper.
C. send the original from your accounting clerk’s PC to the customer’s fax machine, then
make three inkjet printouts.
D. print out the bills using a laser printer, scan them into a file, and e-mail the bills.

and the weird thing is that i am an athiest and that it was in my inbox and not in the bulk folder???

the email:

bad, I have to reach out for a Christian sister, it was through that
Christian sister that I ask to make a Discrete search from the Internet

for a God fearing person that will utilize his money the way I am going
to instruct, and even the sister that help me in this regard doesn’t
know the purpose for which I intend to use it, and I want to believe
that you are a God fearing person, then it will be very easy to finish
this mission but if you are not lead in your spirit to go further

my state of health my relatives are taking advantage of me and they

{,500,000 One million five hundred thousand dollars} to you for the
good work of the lord, and to help the motherless, less privileged and

doctor from taking telephone calls because I deserve all the rest I can

paperwork

you finally get this money use it to help the widows, less privilege,
Christians and the motherless babies.

settle the bill of the bank and the major part you will use to bless
God’s Children all over the world.

Remain Blessed
Mrs. Mercy Miner.

I go into my lexmark sofeware and click send a fax, It scans
the fax on the scanner and I add my cover sheet.
I then put the persons name and fax number I’m sending it
to. I have another screen come up and tells me it is connecting
and I here the dial tone and ringing of the number and it sounds
like it’s going through and then after a few seconds it comes
back and said it failed connection. It sounds like it’s going to
work and then it doesn’t. Help

I have a PDF file (it’s basically a fax cover sheet), and I want people who are using Adobe Reader to be able to type into the fields. I tried added text boxes, and that works as long as the person viewing the PDF is using Acrobat but it does not work with Reader. Is there any way I can set this up to allow typing in Reader?

Was that a function of the PC or the printer? Was the fax mode a part of Word or some other program on PC ? Is there any way I can add this feature to one of my 3 PCs? Have 2 desktops & one laptop.

Hello. I have a home networking question that I have an issue. The questions is how do I connect via wireless means between my wireless built-in PC laptop computer and my Brother All-In-One Fax/Scan/Copier/Printer that has the capability to go into wireless networking, but it is NOT built-in. (MUST READ: In order to get the wireless capability with my Brother All-In-One, I have a buy an optional external wireless print/scan server accessory and attach it to the USB plug-in on my Brother All-In-One. Also, this Brother All-In-One has an Ethernet 100/10 port connection on the back side.)

You may ask, what do I already own as well so I can get the bigger picture? I have a desktop PC where as of right now I have a USB cable connected between the desktop and the Brother All-In-One. I have a Linksys Wireless-N Dual-Band Gigabit Router (Model WRT320N)(Does NOT have a USB plug-in on the back of the router — only found on higher priced routers.). The Ethernet cable is running from my cable modem to the router then connected back to the desktop PC’s Ethernet port.

Other important questions now rose directly related to this issue:

1. Do I have to purchase this optional print/scan server for my Brother All-In-One in order to get the wireless for my laptop? I am having a nearly impossible time trying to find this optional print/scan server. It appears it has been discontinued. Why can’t I get a wireless-N/G networking adapter (like a Linksys or any related brand Dual-Band Wireless-N USB Network Adapter) and plug it into the Brother All-In-One’s USB port where I already have the USB cable from my desktop PC plugged into? WOULDN’T THIS WORK? Wouldn’t this work instead of the optional Brother external wireless print/scan server? Wouldn’t this work wireless arrangement between the laptop PC and the wireless network adapter on my Brother All-In-One?

2. Does my Linksys router need to be present in this wireless scenario? Meaning is my Linksys receiving the signal from my wireless laptop and sending it to my proposed wireless networking adapter on my Brother All-In-One? Does the wireless signal sent from the wireless laptop to the proposed wireless network adapter on my Brother All-In-One send the signal DIRECTLY or DOES IT HAVE TO GO THROUGH THE ROUTER?

3. Now I said I would have to disconnect the USB cable from the Brother All-In-One in order to replace this USB port with my proposed wireless network adapter, so I lost my connection between my desktop PC and the Brother All-In-One. This would mean I would also have to get a wireless network adapter for my PC desktop as well so it can also communicate wirelessly with my Brother All-In-One. IS THIS POSSIBLE OR NOT? If I am able to buy the optional print/scan server for my Brother All-In-One, I am STILL disconnecting the USB cable for my PC desktop too. SOMEHOW I have to get my desktop PC to work with my Brother All-In-One. HOW CAN I?

4. IS THIS LINKSYS ROUTER CAPABLE of sending and receiving printer and scanner signals? …or can it ONLY SEND Internet signals and NOT RECEIVE ANYTHING ELSE? DO I NEED SOMETHING ELSE?

Please comment and please let me know what I need to do so EVERYTHING "WORKS" with everything else — my laptop PC, my desktop PC, and Brother All-In-One!!! I would like to have my laptop PC to have wireless as I have this Linksys router already transmitting over the Internet signals.

Thank you!!!

But, on another program it was shown that 90% of Fortune 500 C.E.O’s had ‘floor files’ which in my small business I did, also. I found that with scores of projects going at the same time something important would fall through the cracks or, even worse, a new client would call and catch me off gaurd if I didn’t have his/her file in front of me in order to refresh my memory-I might forget their name, I was so busy.
Making a ‘goof’ could cost me a lot of money or at the least make me very embarrassed.
But what I have going on now is a complete disaster.
I work at home with a small recording studio in my office and I cannot find things that will bring in money. In one situation all that needs to be done is put together a fax cover sheet and send in some paper work to receive a 0 re-imbursement. It sits right in front of me and has for months. I need the money.
While I get this together top send in coould someone please help.

The receiving fax console is dedicated, so I know that it is on.

Dear Sir,

Thank you in advance,
Yours faithfully,
