The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Windows for Workgroups version 3.11

SYMPTOMS

When you send a fax through a shared network fax (that is, a fax modem not on the local machine) by printing to the Microsoft At Work PC Fax printer driver from within an application, the fax is not sent. No error message is displayed.

CAUSE

This problem occurs when you do not have a MAPI application running on both machines.

RESOLUTION

To correct this problem, start a MAPI application (for example, Microsoft Mail or Schedule Plus) on each workstation.
