FaxMan Jr.

What's new in FaxMan Jr V2.20?

• Added 64 Bit Printer Drivers for Vista, XP and Windows Server 2003 & 2008
• Class 1 sending now more robust when line issues after dialing, previous versions would error out when receiving an ERROR or Timeout after the initial CONNECT after dialing, now it resends a +FRH=3 when that occurs.
• AutoDetect automatically sets the proper init string for Hardware flow control for USR modems.
• Changes were made to the Transmit code to be more robust when data is received when we are sending the page data. In some prior builds it would not properly handle this leading to No Reponse to MPS/EOP or timeout issues.

What's new in FaxMan Jr V2x?

• Terminal Services Support - Both the FaxMan clients, server and printer drivers are now Terminal Services aware allowing your applications to work automatically under Windows Terminal Services
• .Net Components - New managed .Net Fax and Printer controls make developing .Net based fax applications a snap.
• Class 2.1 FaxModem Support - Support for Class 2.1 and V.34 support boosts Fax transmission speeds from 14.4K to 33.6K. Save time and long distance charges with page transmission times as low as 3 of seconds for a standard page. Recommended modems include the Multitech 5634ZBA V.92 series and Mainpine multi port cards
• Simplified Printing Architecture - The new printer architecture simplifies development and deployment of applications

What's new in V1.71?

• New usermode printer drivers support Windows 2003 without any server configuration changes
• New self contained FaxInstall utility for installing FaxMan printer drivers simplifies deployment and installs the new user mode drivers on Windows 2000/XP/Windows 2003 systems.
• Support for PDF import via the new FaxMan PDF Import Addon module. The basic Jr install includes a trial version of the PDF import which adds a watermark to the imported pdf images.
• Several bug fixes.
• New C# and VB.Net samples

version 1.53

• Fixed a bug that could cause a GPF when working with Packbits encoded tiffs
• Addes support for tiff files who's Photometric Interpretation flag is set to BlackisZero
• Fixed a bug which could cause intermittent crashes when opening certain images
• For certain TIF files with large numerators in the resolution we could report an invalid res because of an overflow while calling ImportFiles
• Added 20 ms delays after sending EOP/MPS to help avoid NO CARRIER/BAD CARRIER messages when doing +FRH=3 to get MCF
• Fixed the wininit.ini so that we now pass it short file names when running the FaxInstall utility
• Updated the certificate with which the controls and install were signed. This will eliminate the warning message some users were getting when installing the toolkit

version 1.51

• Fixed a bug introduced in V 1.50 of the control which could cause the control to hang if it encountered an RTN response to an EOP/MPS signal.

version 1.50

• Fixed a problem which could cause spurious 'Unable to Get Filename' messages under Win 95/98/NT when printing jobs sequentially with little delay between them.

version 1.05

• Port property defaults to 0 but the acceptable range is 1 - 99. Now the port property defaults to 1.
• ClassX crashes when a newer ImageMan IM31Fax.dil copies over the older version. This has been resolved and ClassX will now work with either the newer or the older DIL.

version 1.04

• Changed the default Reset string to ATZ instead of AT&F.
• Fixed a bug which caused out temporary cover page files to remain on disk instead of being deleted when the fax was completed.

version 1.03

• Fixed a bug which in a specific situation could cause the FaxMan Jr control to continue sending pages past the last page of the fax.
• ClassX crashed when it tried to load resource data on Windows 2000.

Here's a partial list of FaxMan Jr's features:
