I'm not sure this goes here but I'll give it a shot. I want to know if there is such a beast as a Fax(Send/Receive)9600baud/Hayes 2400baud w/MNP5. I've seen a Prometheus modem w/ all of the above plus V.32/V.42 support. I like those features but cost wise it's over kill. I would be interested if anyone has had any experience with the Prometheus too. I've seen a lot of Fax modems w/Hayes 2400baud support but the key issue here is the MNP5. Any help would be appreciated. Just out of curiousity I would like to know something about the software that the fax boards use (how do they work, what graphic formats do they except, can you scan directly to them,etc.).

EverFax faxmodem has mnp5. But doesn;t support high-res on the fax.

Screen output for incoming or something to do with the way the images are transmitted??? srm -- Scott R.

High res support means it will be able to receive and transmit 300dpi pages as opposed to 150dpi. So if you receive a page of fine text transmitted at high-res from the other side, with a low-res fax, you may only see it in a grainy mode and be able to print it out like that only even if you have a 300dpi laser printer. I just found the perfect low-price fax card for $130 I got the Micromatics fax card with highres and all features of most low-priced (300$) fax cards. It works well. If you need one or more mail me and I;ll put you in touch with the seller. The manufactureer is a co. in Fremont, CA
