The information in this article applies to:


 * Microsoft Windows 95

SYMPTOMS
When you change modem-specific settings in the Modem Properties dialog box in Microsoft Fax, the fax transport does not use the new settings. For example, the fax transport does not use a new Speaker Volume or Answer After  Rings setting.

CAUSE
This behavior occurs only with certain fax/modems. A list of these fax/modems is not currently available.

RESOLUTION
To make sure the new settings are used, restart the application that will use them. For example, restart Microsoft Exchange after you change modem-specific settings in Microsoft Fax.

MORE INFORMATION

 * 1) Double-click the Microsoft Fax Status icon on the taskbar.

NOTE: If this icon is not present, first double-click the Inbox icon on the desktop, then click the Fax profile if prompted.
