Receiving Blank Pages or "Bad Error" Err Msg in At Work PC Fax (114112)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Windows for Workgroups 3.11
This article was previously published under Q114112 SYMPTOMS
Microsoft At Work PC Fax appears to successfully receive faxes; however,
once the transmission is completed, you receive blank pages or a
Bad
Error
error message.
CAUSE
Blank pages or the "Bad Error" message occurs when you are using a Class 2
modem and the bit order of the fax is reversed from the order in which
Microsoft At Work PC Fax expects it.
You also receive blank pages if you have seperator pages selected in Print
Manager.
RESOLUTION
To correct these problems, add the following line to the [COMx] section of
the EFAXPUMP.INI file:
PreAnswerCommand=AT+FBOR=0
If this does not correct the problem, restore the line to the following:
PreAnswerCommand=AT+FBOR=1
MORE INFORMATION
"PreAnswerCommand=AT+FBOR=0" allows Microsoft At Work PC Fax to read the
bits in the order they are received.
"PreAnswerCommand=AT+FBOR=1" allows Microsoft At Work PC Fax to read the
bits in reverse order of how they are received.
