The latest Panasonic fax machines offer supper G3 fax transmission speed upto
36.6 KB to shorten the time to 4 sec a page.

Does WinXP support that fax speed and are there any external fax modem that
can handle that high speed to be connected to my WinXP computer.

Thanks for any help

Transmission speed is a function of the modems involved, not the Fax
software. If you find a high speed modem that's compatible with Windows XP
Fax (see the Windows XP Hardware Compatibility List (HCL) at
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/catalog) you should be able to send and
receive at the fastest speed that the modems involved negotiate when they
establish communications between each other. Note that this may well NOT be
the maximum speed that your modem is capable of running.

Hi Simon,

V.34 SuperG3 requires support from both the fax modem hardware and fax
software. All of the Microsoft fax software products use fax service
class 1, 2, or 2.0 which is limited to V.17 (14400bps) send/receive.
Many third party fax software products support fax service Class 1.0
and 2.1 which support V.34 (33600bps) send/receive.

Here's a list of third party software that is approved for use with
our boards. Most of it supports V.34 and runs on XP;
