- I've been using a MaxFax 9624 as our in-house email to fax server; but
- our mail system is on a Twincom 14.4K - so today I started setting up
- the Twincom to send and receive fax, so I can do everything on the
- one machine and take the 9624 home. (Yes, it *is* mine :-) )
-
- I could *not* get the Twincom to receive faxes... until I sent it one
- from a paper fax machine rather than the Maxfax. Two paper fax machines
- in fact.
-
- When I send from the MaxFax, it fails to recognise it as a fax machine
- and wibbles a lot of modem noises at it.
-
- Does anyone recognise this behaviour? And have any helpful comments?
-
- Much appreciated,
-
- Graham
