- Hi all,
-
- for non U.S. residents callback is still a money saver on international calls
- and since billing is done more and more in 6 seconds intervals and not
- anymore by the minute the rates became "fax friendly". Line quality sometimes
- makes it hard for fax transmission but in most cases you can use call back
- without problems. It's worth a try for the savings anyway. This is how I use
- WinFax Pro V.4.0 with Call Back in Spain:
-
- 1. Dial tone and busy tone recognition must be switched off in the modems set up
- menu.
- 2. You prepare your fax as usual but for the number you put in just "m".
- 3. You then send off the fax using delayed sending and holding back. This puts
- the fax in the "out basket". Here you pick it up again and in the drop down list
- you get ready to "send now" but wait.
- 4. Now its time for the Call Back to initiate. Once the service is back and you
- took the call you can send off your fax. Winfax needs some time to set up the
- modem etc. and then will wait.
- 5. Meanwhile you have dialed up the receiving fax and as soon as the negotiation
- starts and you see "connecting to fax" on the screen you can hung up and leave
- it to the modem.

- Cheers,
