That's interesting, even weird. I still think it could be either OO or

Odds are there are no new drivers to try for vista. Which printer is it?



OK - I just got an idea. How abut installing one of the other free

office suites? In fact OpenOffice has been supplanted by LibreOffice, so

you might want to try that. I imagine that KingSoft Office will work on

Vista as well. If one or another of these programs works OK, then it was

OO, otherwise the printer driver or even the printer itself.

April 2011.[11] Active successor projects include Apache OpenOffice,

LibreOffice and NeoOffice"

Same problem with Libreoffice 4.2.2 (I've got A.O.O. 4.1).
But I can send the same file using a different "fax function" instead of "windows fax scanner", the one of a Canon inkjet multifunction printer (MX 895).
My printer is a Dell 5110cn but it doesn't have any fax modem in it..."windows fax scanner" software uses my pc inbuilt fax modem...
Do u think I have to install the latest and specific Dell's drivers? Thanks!
