Fax and scanning of reception on the network Windows 7

We use Windows 7 Fax and Scan. Faxes come in the network server.  The problem I have is that I have to restart my computer periodically throughout the day to see new faxes. My computer seems to be the only one in the Office that this is happening. Our outdoor COMPUTER technician is able to resolve the problem.  Any suggestions?

Thank you.

  • How to MOVE the default location of Windows Fax and Scan?

    We have recently added a second server (Windows Server 2008) to a domain AD., because the new server has more resources, we moved all the DOCUMENTS folder to users from the server (Server 2003) network share to address liked to a share on the new Server 2008 machine. After the move, all Windows 7 machines runs the utility of fax and scan can not find MANY DOCUMENTS folder as the utility constantly points to the old server (which took the OLD action of document already deleted).

    I changed the location of DOCUMENTS in Windows 7 for Server 2008 sharing, but Fax and Scan keeps searching for the old stock 2003 server and I cannot find where to redirect them. Can I turn off Windows fax and analysis services to the title of printing and scanning and then restore? That will allow me to redirect to the correct folder? I have tried even to search the registry for references to the old stock but still can't seem to locate the old server to the MANY DOCUMENTS reference.

    Can anyone help?

    I solved this problem with a synlink

    First to find the actual location of Library/Documents/scanned documents, make this scanned Documents to right click and click 'open file location '.

    In my case he opened it (that I copied from the address bar):

    Documents C:\Users\Tim\Documents\Scanned

    What should I do now is to save the files in this folder, and then delete the "Documents" folder completely

    Then click the windows key and type in run or search (or click the Windows key + R) and type 'cmd' and press enter

    A black console should appear

    In it, you must enter this command, I wanted that my scans to record in X:\Scans

    MKLINK /j "C:\Users\Tim\Documents\Scanned Documents" X:\Scans

    then press enter

    This creates a folder (symlink, not a shortcut), who acts as a normal file, but is actually located in a different place, so when the scan software saves files in its default location will be actually stored in X:\Scans

  • change the com port assigned to the fax and scan

    I used fax and scanning for once.  I had to move my external modem to a different port.

    I don't know how to change the windows fax and scan com port manually.

    the wizard does NOT start, I guess because the fax is installed and worked until I had to change the number of COM port...  I need to change the number of pot with hundreds of research, it seems that no one knows how to change manually the Compote in windows fax and scan, unless they use the wizard.

    my assistant does not start. I guess I'm 'old school' I don't need an Assistant, I need to manually change the fax uses com port.

    :-), it's frustrating because help said only: click "fax" in the lower left corner, and they all assume the installation wizard starts and everything will be fine. :-(

    the wizard does not start. :-(

    I am desperate to get my fax work and need to know how to set the correct port number in a system that is installed and running, such as the wizard never starts.

    for anyone who goes out at the end of questions and ideas, I have a fax application stand alone who is working with the new port setting. It's just not a good app for my needs

    Please?

    Thank you

    Post proposed by the moderator of the appropriate forum category

    Hi John,.

    You can follow the steps below to change the COM port for a modem:

    1. search the Device Manager.

    2 look for the Modem device, right-click on it, and then click Properties.

    • If the change settings button is present, you must click on it to make changes to the appliance. If the user account control dialog box appears, confirm that the displayed action corresponds to what you want, and then click continue.
    • If the change settings button is not present, the modem does not support the ability to change the modem settings. Refer to the documentation provided by the vendor of your modem.

    3. on the Advanced tab, click Advanced port settings.

    • If this option is not displayed, the modem does not support the ability to change the assigned COM port. Refer to the documentation provided by the vendor of your modem.

    If the same persists, we suggest that you post your query in Microsoft TechNet so that their support team will provide you in-depth assistance.

    Kind regards.

  • Scanning multiple pages with Windows Fax and Scan

    I can't understand how to scan multiple pages in a document on Windows 7 using the Windows Fax and Scan program. Using the same printer (Canon MX300), I can scan in several pages in a single file on my old XP using Windows Office Document Imaging. It works very well. I tried to download this program on my Windows 7 computer and I can scan, but the pages are blank! Can someone help me get this figured out?

    MODI is part of the office and requires the rest of the Office to be there. You can also use a PDF as PDF-Xchange Viewer writer to import your pages scanned in a multipage. PDF of the file and send it by fax.

  • Windows Fax and Scan cannot detect Photosmart C4580 all-in-1 scanner connected to the wireless network

    I have no problem printing or scanning when I connect my C4500 to PC via USB.  When connected via my home wireless router I can print OK but can not scan - it's the same for other users and computers.  Windows Fax and Scan gives me the message 'no scanner found. '  I need to work so that all users on my netwrok home can share the scanner.  I use Windows 7 64-bit.

    Thanks Travis_C (HP).  I actually found the solution just before receiving your answer!  I discovered that, although the Solution Center says it would uninstall the existing files before allowing me to reinstall with the latest version downloaded, it didn't remove all the files.  I only discovered this because the new facility has not taken me through the whole fresh installation procedure, he simply asked me what additional features I wanted to install and asked me if I wanted a local printer or network etc.

    I thought that there must be a mistake or problem with whatever existing files were left and the new facility would not correct it.  So I used the control panel to uninstall the existing files, and I made sure that everything was gone.  I then used the last download to reinstall, this time through the new correct installation procedure, and everything now works perfectly.

    With this method I always had a problem on another PC, giving me the same problem I had before.  I realized that this was due to a USB dongle connected to the PC to a wireless keyboard that seems to affect the installation.  When I removed the dongle installation worked again perfectly, and I now have full printing and scanning ability on all PCs.

    I think the installer for this printer wireless (and perhaps others?) should be updated to solve the problem, and also the center of Solution must be fixed to ensure that if you uninstall the software it should not leave anything.

  • Windows Fax and Scan - what the appropriate use for the concurrent users to save to the network program?

    I'll try to keep this simple - as I already asked this on other forums without the answer. My environment - Windows 7 Enterprise SP1 32-bit client machines. A computer needs to scan patient documents to a network shared by a group of users folder. There will be many people who use this computer even through all day (several shifts - environment 24 hours/7 days).  This is why I need multiple profiles from windows to all save the scan to the SAME network location.

    Currently I am trying to achieve with Windows Fax and Scan and using the ' Scan 'option under 'tools' routing. "  There is a check box (once in this option) for "network location".  I am using this option, but its does not work and that's the whole problem. Its supposed to AUTOMATICALLY record each scan to the specified network location, but it does no such thing. The scan is not registered at all in fact it is just in the interface user of Windows Fax and Scan... double you click it, and then it shows you the image.

    Some information note for helping people answer this question (and any help is appreciated):

    (1) * YES * the network folder, I am trying to record is a valid network folder and * IS * accessible via my network of different devices

    (2) * YES * the user of this journal on the computer with the scanner * ALL * read/write to have rights to this location of the network folder

    (3) * file YES and printing sharing is already active on clients

    If you please if someone either knows how to solve this problem, or at this stage if you can even suggest a different (cheaper the better) application that will scan to a network location please let me know.

    One might think to a disabled feature labeled as "scan routing" and then a field for "network location", it would be simple as plugging in the network folder and checking a box - apparently it isn't.

    Thank you.

  • Windows 7: Windows Fax and Scan - can't get it to automatic backup to a network

    We use Windows Fax and Scan (Version 6.1 Build 7601: Service Pack 1)-this is the version included with our client for 32-bit Windows 7 Enterprise OS

    I just installed a scanner in a sleep laboratory, scanner works perfectly. There are several sleep technicians that will connect to a computer with the scanner (so short of several user profiles) and patient scan RXs.  Problem is that sleep manager wants the scans to record automatically in a central location for any technology connects in their analyses will record in the same place as everyone else.

    The key is the AUTOMATIC backup.

    This is so the news of background - at the heart of the question... it seems a feature that offers Windows Fax and Scan does not work.

    If you go in fax and scan, there is an option in the tools of-> Scan routing.  If you read on the functionality of its supposed to save AUTOMATICALLY in the network shown, its not to do so.

    So I check the box 'Save in the network folder' (don't know the exact wording)

    (I use xxx because I don't want to publicly share real location) \\xxx\xxxxx\xxxxx\Neuromuscular.

    This is 100% valid and share name of work - used for years many people save to it... Windows Fax and Scan says "sharing network not valid."

    If someone said just use \\server\share

    OK I create a folder on my computer, we'll call it Computer1 and name sharefolder. I share and give "everyone" access read/write... sharing is \\Computer1\Sharefolder.

    Plug in Windows Fax and Scan - it don't be complaint that it is a bad sharing more. So I think that a lot!

    I scan a test page - this isn't automatic registration to \\computer1\sharefolder.  I can come here, but that defeats the whole point of the analysis of routing.

    Sleep lab will be scanning hundreds of slips of Rx by day, management won't allow lost time by manual movement of the images to the save location.

    Any help is greatly appreciated. Got to be honest I'm a little irritated right now because I think its Microsoft as announced a feature in one of their applications is not working.

    Thank you

  • Problem with Windows Fax and Scan does not connect to the Internal Modem

    Just got a new Acer Aspire 5542-5416 computer laptop with Windows 7 64 bit Home Premium, 4 GB of Ram and a 320 GB hard drive. It has a 56 k modem integrated fax of like the old days, but I can't make it work. The laptop did not come with the Windows CD.

    If I open the program Windows Fax and Scan, it is not able to connect to the modem. Basically, if I click on tools > fax accounts > Add..., I get a box with 2 choices: to connect to a fax modem or connect to a fax on my network server. When I want to connect a fax modem I get a message that says: an error has occurred. Please, try the operation again later or contact your administrator. It allows me to do this then just clock OK and them I'm right where I started.

    While in Windows Fax and Scan, if I click on tools > fax settings... nothing happens. No menu settings or anything ever appears. Quite simply, the program does nothing. If I try tools > Fax Status Monitor... I get a box that says entrance exam status, ready to receive a fax. It has a blue progress bar as something takes over, but it gets about 1/100 to and never goes further or ends. There is no box, but there are 3 buttons: view details, answer call or cancel. If I hit details, I get an empty list. If I click on answer call I get an error that says that the fax service is not available.

    If I try tools > Options, general tab has only a single option box is checked: play a sound when come it to new messages. If I try to print a Word or PDF file to a fax using Fax in the printer list, I get the same box with 2 choices: to connect to a fax modem or connect to a fax on my network server, but I get the same error message: an error has occurred. Please, try the operation again later or contact your administrator.

    I've searched the Internet high and low for a solution but no luck. There is a lot of discussion about this problem, but none of the solutions work for me. If I go to Device Manager, the modem is working properly and if I click on the Modem query on the Diagnostics tab, it seems to be able to communicate with the modem very well. I tried to roll back the driver and updated again and still no luck, same problem. If I go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Fax\Accounts in the registry, there is no subkeys under the folder accounts I can delete.

    Has anyone else had a similar problem? Is there any solution for this? I did a Windows Update last night and has not yet solve it. Thank you.

    Sorry about that.

    Fax and scan is available in Windows Vista Business and Ultimate editions, it is not available in any of the Windows Vista Home editions.  Since you have a version of Windows Vista Edition family, the only option of fax is a third-party product.  These products work under Windows Vista:
