Default Fax Mode

Select T.38 (auto) if you want to send faxes with T.38 support by default. Select audio if you want to send faxes as audio (fax over G.711 codec) by default. Select isdn if you want to send faxes via ISDN CAPI 2.0 line by default. Note that you can change Fax Mode in the Fax Voip Printer dialog window (or with Mail to Fax function) before fax sending.

Fax Voip Printer Image Quality

Select 204x196 dpi if you want to send faxes in high-quality resolution (Fine). Or select 200x98 dpi to send faxes in Normal resolution. The fax in Normal resolution is transmitted two times faster than the fax in Fine resolution. You can also adjust fax resolution by changing the property of Fax Voip Printer (Printer Preferences=>Advanced=>Print Quality) when printing a document. Keep in mind that this option is applied only to faxes created using Fax Voip Printer and does not depend on the similar option that you have in the Convert to Fax settings.

Save Incoming Faxes as

Select TIFF if you want to have your faxes delivered as TIFF files. Select PDF, if you want to have your faxes delivered as PDF files. Or select SFF, if you want to have your faxes delivered as SFF files. In the case of receiving faxes as audio (over G.711 codec) or using T.38 protocol, it is recommended to use TIFF format. In the case of receiving CAPI faxes according to B3 Protocol 4: T.30 for Group 3 fax or according to B3 Protocol 5: T.30 for Group 3 fax extended, it is recommended to use SFF format.
