Re: Faxing with CF
Okay, I have a Canon printer/fax on the network, that we use. It has a static IP, etc. Is there a way to send the required information here? I don't really want to use the server to send faxes through the modem. Maybe I will have to talk to Canon and see if they have a COM object or something that I can interact with through CF.

How can you send documents to the fax machine from a computer without ColdFusion? If you can define that, then it can be determined if ColdFusion can do it or not. Depending on the answers, some features of CFML that you are most likely going to be looking at are cfhttp..., cfexecute... or cfobject... ~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;207172674;29440083;f Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:315537 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
RE: Faxing with CF
Can you print a fax to the MFU and instruct it to fax rather than actually print? If so, you may have another option. Make sure your CF services run as a user that has permissions to send print jobs to your network printer. Log on to the CF server using the same account as your CF services. Setup the network printer and run a test print. Then, have CF generate a text file, use CFEXECUTE to print it and sit back and enjoy. (One other option is to create a PDF and use CFPRINT to send it to the printer.)

Faxing with CF
Good Day all, I know that this was talked about some time ago, but I was hoping that there might be some new information about this topic. I really want to be able to send a fax through CF, and not have to write something else to do it. I have tried using the CFPRINT tag, but it does not have any way to accept any fax numbers. Are there any suggestions? I will look at other solutions, but no I don't want a pay for use service. We have a lovely fax machine at the office, and I would like to just leverage that... Thanks in advance.

Re: Faxing with CF
Not the answer you are looking for I am sure... The most common ways people accomplish this task are: eFax: eFax allows you to send faxes by sending an email to a designated eFax email address from a specified email account. When you do that, it will fax whatever you send it to whomever you want. This is a paid service and they charge by the page Hardware Solutions: There are many vendors who produce hardware that is capable of being accessed over the network through various protocols that CF can access to allow you to send faxes using your own phone equipment. None of these solutions are cheap as the hardware is typically a few thousand dollars. One vendor I have worked with: http://www.castelle.com/ As for making the fax machine in your office do it.. That's just not going to be simple, it most likely was not designed to accomplish this task.

RE: faxing from cf
Don't know about Europe, but we use Efax and then send faxes using CFMAIL to a fax number like: [EMAIL PROTECTED] and it translates the part before the @ into a fax number and sends it for you. You can send attachments as PDF, Word, etc. and they'll be faxed or you can just send content in the email body. Works pretty well for us. $10 a month and $.10 per page.

Remote Faxing from CF
Does anyone have any experience sending faxes from a CF application, using a fax card that is installed in a remote location (in a different city than the web server)? At this point there will be only one source for the faxes, but ideally we could send the faxes from anywhere. As the faxes will currently all be sent from the client's site, we are not looking at any third party faxing services, as we feel that that would involve a much greater cost to the client. We are just beginning the investigation, and would love to hear from anyone who has any suggestions for products and/or techniques for doing this.

RE: Remote Faxing from CF
We use Protofax from Protonet on our server and it works excellent. A fax can be sent from any computer as an email and the system will forward it to a fax machine. It is third party but it is also a superb product. It can be set up to send out to 8 different modems on your server with the proper licensing. http://www.protonet.com Larry Juncker Senior Cold Fusion Developer Heartland Communications Group, Inc. -Original Message- From: Bob Silverberg [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, April 02, 2001 9:51 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Remote Faxing from CF Does anyone have any experience sending faxes from a CF application, using a fax card that is installed in a remote location (in a different city than the web server)?

RE: Remote Faxing from CF
You may also want to try Windows 2000's internet print service. You can set up a remote fax printer that forwards the documents to the fax service.
