Using Windows Fax and Scan
Windows Fax and Scan comes pre-installed with Windows Vista Business, Enterprise, or Ultimate
Editions. If your computer has a built-in fax modem, Windows automatically detects it during
the setup process. You can connect your computer to one local fax modem, although you can
connect to multiple fax servers or devices on a network. If you are not sure whether your
computer has a built-in fax modem, check the hardware information that came with your
computer. If you have an external fax modem, follow the manufacturer's instructions for
attaching it to your computer. Make sure that the modem is turned on before proceeding.
Your fax cover page, on which you can include all required information, is set up when you
prepare to send the first fax from this computer.
You cannot send or receive a fax using a cable or DSL modem by following these instructions.
Many Internet services exist that let you send or receive faxes using a broadband connection.
Your dial-up modem cable must be installed before you can send and receive faxes. You cannot
use your standard telephone modem to connect to the Internet while sending and receiving faxes.
Tip
Most e-mail programs let you attach files, such as photographs, to your
e-mail. For more information, see the help for your e-mail program.
