And can it tell the PC it is hooked to which it is? And while I am at it, can a FAX machine *originate* a call, but then *receive* the FAX instead of sending it (sort of the reverse of what is normal fax behavior)? Thanks to all who respond! - Jay -- ------------------------------------------------------------------ Jay Bowden, EE/Consultant; see also Bowden Engineering Currently contracted at Loral Instrumentation, San Diego {ucbvax, ittvax!dcdwest, akgua, decvax, ihnp4}!ucsd!loral!jcb
