You can use a computer with your existing fax software package to retrieve fax pages
stored in DRAM. Use either the parallel port or the serial port to connect your com-
puter to the modem and run your favorite fax program. When the fax program sets
the modem to fax Class 2 or Class 2.0 mode, the modem will emulate fax calls com-
ing in, have the fax program receive the fax calls, and then dump all stored fax pages
to the fax program. Note that each stored fax call, either single-page or multiple-
page, will cause the modem to emulate a separate fax call and the fax program will
store and log them as a separate fax reception.
There are two S-register bits reserved to control the printing or downloading of fax
pages stored in DRAM. For printing to laser printer,
S71b5=0 The modem will not print stored fax pages which are unprinted yet,
but which have already downloaded to a computer fax program.
S71b5=1 The modem will print stored fax pages.
The default is S71b5=0 .
For downloading faxes to a computer fax program,
S71b4=0 The modem will not download fax pages to a computer fax program
which have not yet been downloaded, but which have already been
printed.
S71b4=1 The modem will download printed pages.
The default is S71b4=0 .
If the modem’s DRAM stores fax pages which the modem will either print to a
printer or download to a computer fax program, the front panel’s
FAX LED indica-
tor will flash. This also depends on the settings of S71b5 and S71b4 . For the
Omni, the V34 and V32b LEDs will flash simultaneously.
