• Help with registration of the PDF when using Windows Fax and Scan

  When I use the Windows Fax and Scan, I'm trying to scan a document and then save it as a PDF file.  What happens is when I save it, it opens Adope Photo Shop and will not let me save it as a PDF.  How can I scan a document and then save it as a PDF in Windows 7.0?

  If you have Word 2007 or later, you can scan it, then save it as a PDF. Works fine for me. I have a Canon LIDE 100 scanner, I bought for $50, which will also scan directly to PDF.

  I hope this helps. Good luck.

• Disable Windows Fax and Scan - can anyone help?

  I am running OS Windows Vista Business 64 - bit on a lenovo T500 with 4 GB of RAM.

  Inadvertently, I installed Windows Fax and Scan. This program continutes pop up telling me problems at times and at other times what it says it is ready to send faxes. This pop is boring. It's as if I've been disconnected from the internet and he needs my password again.

  At this point, I need to turn it off so that I can get my work without this constrant irritation. How can I disable this feature?

• Windows Fax and Scan "Sender Name" empty (Windows Server 2008 Standard)

  Hi all

  I am using Windows Server 2008 Standard (32-bit) with a RocketModem III card.  I have the latest drivers for the RocketModem.

  Using Windows Fax and Scan, I can send and receive faxes fine.  The only problem is when I see the fax, the name of the sender is blank.  I am trying to display the telephone number that someone sends me the fax to.

  I had thought it might also be under CSID, but everything I have complete options because it puts there.  I guess that means I want the CSID show for all those who sent faxes to me.

  It might be worth noting that I have active CallerID and you have a real fax machine that shows the incoming number very well.

  Does anyone have an idea where I could go wrong here?  Thanks in advance for the help!

  This issue is beyond the scope of this site and must be placed on Technet or MSDN

• Vista Ultimate and no. Windows Fax and Scan option

  I use Windows Vista Ultimate SP1, checking that the scanning device shows in scanners and cameras - status = ready but Windows Fax and Scan is not in my Start Menu.  I think that's where?

  Thank you-

  Hi Pmd10,

  You can type fax and scanning in the start search box and the option should appear in the upper part of the menu, or you can check if these steps also.

  1. Click Start > Control Panel
  2. Click turn on or off windows features

  If the scan and fax option is enabled, try to uncheck the option, and then click ok

  Restart your computer and check.

  Hope this has been helpful.

• 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 - 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

  Tom

• "How to remove scanners listed in Windows Fax and Scan App under 'Tools' - >"Scan Routing? '"

  My question is very simple: I believe!  How can I remove scanners listed in Windows Fax and Scan App under 'Tools'-> 'Scan routing?  This really should not be so dang hard when I do an install, and regedit, I looked at most of the places are to get rid of any residue.  However, when I get back in Windows FAX and Scan, inevitiably I see printers / scanners way back when I bought this laptop.

  I use Windows 7 Home Premium as my operating system.

  I think I'll try the following:

  Uninstall Norton & reboot

  Reinstall your HP printer using the latest version of the full software features on HP site, preferably in the usb connection.

  Test the printer or use HP diagnostics to test its operation, then uninstall HP printing via programs & features software.

  Then use the HP utility to completely re - move

  http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?CC=UK&LC=en&DLC=en&softwareitem=MP-49133-2

  If all goes well, that should put an end to this

  (With the help of uninstalling programs & features should remove the printer from the "Devices and Printers")

• Has anyone seen a fax USB modem that works with Windows Fax and Scan?

  So far I'm 0 for 2.  PC Fax modems seem to be a lost art.  A few months ago, I tried a USB fax modem and tested the receipt of the fax.  The modem answers the phone, the fax sender starts the transmission and... nothing happens.  Eventually, the sender times out with an error.   Same computer, same Windows Fax and Scan software, with an old modem connected to a serial port, all works well.  Modem manufacturer was not able to help.

  And now the same problem with another PC, the modem is different, different situation.  This time I don't have an easy fallback to a serial port.

  And that leads to my question - no matter that matter where in fact seen a fax-modem USB in the field send and receive faxes using Windows Fax and Scan on Windows 7, and if yes, what was the make and model?

  Thank you

  -Greg Scott

  Hello Greg,.

  Thanks for the quick response.

  You can view the reviews of the product in the manufacturer's Web site and see if that helps.

  Also for the Windows Fax and Scan, when your PC or computer would be equipped with a fax modem (or connected to a fax server), it can send and receive documents such as a standalone device. Windows Fax and Scan even includes a handy tool for the design of custom cover pages.
