Sending faxes using Fax Sender

You can send any document that can be printed as a fax
using either Fax Sender or Fax Sender GX, depending on
your system configuration. If you have QuickDraw GX
installed as part of your system, you will send faxes using Fax
Sender GX, which is covered later in this chapter. Otherwise,
you will use Fax Sender, which is covered in this section. Fax
Sender and Fax Sender GX are system software that allow
you to send faxes, in the same way that you print
documents, from any program that supports printing.

Choosing Fax Sender

Before sending a fax using Fax Sender, you need to select
Fax Sender to image your document, just as you would a
printer. There are two ways to select Fax Sender.
To select Fax Sender temporarily (just for imaging and
transmitting the current document) without changing
anything in the Chooser

Hold down the Control and Shift keys while choosing Page

Setup or Print from the File menu of your program.
The Fax Sender page setup or print dialog box appears.
When you finish sending your fax, the printer or other
device that was previously selected in the Chooser remains
selected and will be used for subsequent printing.

Important

This shortcut works only with Fax Sender. It

does not work with Fax Sender GX; to use Fax Sender GX,
create a desktop printer icon instead.
