In Business with the HP Brio PC Communicating with Others Enabling & Disabling Fax Reception Sometimes you may not want the fax modem to automatically answer calls - if you only have one telephone line, for example, and you're expecting a telephone call from a customer, rather than a fax! To enable or disable fax reception, 1 From your fax application select, Menu Configure Options The window shows a choice of tabs. 2 Select the Answering tab. 3 Select/de-select the Do Not Answer option from the drop down list. Sending & Reading E-mails Electronic mail - e-mail - is a system of sending messages from one computer to another. Your HP Brio PC uses the modem as the means for sending and receiving emails. People use e-mail because it is fast - very fast. While an express letter might take a day to get from one continent to another, an e-mail would typically be there in a matter of minutes. And the cost is slashed, to the price typically of a local telephone call. Accessing the Internet The Internet - sometimes called the net, world wide web, or web - has become almost an indispensable tool for many businesses today. Yet many people either do not understand it fully. This can mean time wasted, and lost opportunities. 17
