What is the Printer Driver and why do I need a printer driver when I want to fax and not print?
Printer Drivers are the easiest and simplest way to convert a document to fax, as we will show it later. Common Mistakes: A common practice is that when the fax is prepared it is saved as a bitmap or TIFF file to be reused later. Once again there are several problems with this approach. When you prepare the document for faxing, you used the default printer, which was probably some high-resolution printer. The second mistake is the paper size. Most people believe that fax paper size is the same as Letter in the US or A4 for the rest of the world. That is incorrect! Both Letter and A4 are very close to fax paper size but not exactly the same. A4 is 210×279 mm and Letter is 8 1/2×11 inch, but it also must be 204×198 DPI, which results in 1686×2291 for A4 and 1734×2156 pixels for Letter paper size. The fax paper size is 1728×2200 pixels. When you import in one of these incorrect Bitmap or TIFF files into Impact Fax products, the imported document must be stretched to 1728×2200 or shrunk to
