More info?)
yes when I click PRINT in word I ahve no printer so it goes to the fax as I
want it to & then the FAX WIZARD opens put in telephone number etc & then you
can preview the fax but it opens in Corel (only previewing the first
page)......It never did before I had to re install windows
Only had this PC 8 week, not happy
🙁
Thanks anyway
