Check with your hardware mfg. to see if they have Vista compatible software
or drivers. I have an HP All-In-One 5510 with fax, and Vista does not support it. Thus, everything else works fine in Vista, but, the fax, and HP is not saying if, or when, they might have Vista compatible sw or drivers for it. Hope this helps.

If that was the case, I wouldn't be able to scan ...scanning works just fine.
As a workaround, I use the Epson scan utils to scan and then "print" to FAX and that works fine .. Its the scan module inside the FAX application, its doing at a too low of a resolution.

Its the scan module inside the FAX application, its doing at a too low of a resolution. I see. Good luck in getting it resolved. I have a second desktop that I can use for my Faxes, so it am not totally without fax capability, but, I would like to be able to work from within Vista without having go around about.
