Fax unattended (without the wizard?) with shared fax? 2003/XP

[Magnus von Rosen]

Howdy,

we have set up a shared fax printer using Server 2003
Standard. It is working great, but we have a problem that
needs cracking.

We wish to fax from our business-application. How can we
print to the faxprinter and get it to fax to the correct
number and without running the wizard?

Can it be done at all?

Thanks
Magnus, Sweden

It is not possible to send a fax without running the wizard by printing to
the Fax printer. However, you can write a script to send a fax using which
you can make it automated. There is a sample script to send a fax at
