document, such as Microsoft Word. Write the fax or
open the file to be sent as a fax.

Selecting the FRITZ!fax printer in Word
3. Depending on the application, you may be able to spec-
ify additional settings such as the number of copies or
the range to be printed. In Word’s Print dialog you may
also click the “Properties” button to set the fax resolu-
tion (98 or 196 dpi). Color faxes are always sent with a
resolution of 200 dpi.
Depending on the type of data, large fax files may re-
sult when sending color faxes. As a result, the fax trans-
mission takes longer. The FRITZ! Send window displays
the fax file size.
