Windows Fax and Scan, Cannot print faxes to printer

Anonymous

I have been facing this problem for about a week now.

Faxes are working just fine. I can send and receive faxes without problem.

I can save those faxes and then print them if needed. But the problem is that I cannot print them directly from the application as I were able to before. I see the printer being detected by the application but when I hit the print command, nothing happens.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thank you.

    So I've been having this issue for a while now having to use the Snip Function to Print Faxes. I was able to find a VERY quick workaround.

    1. Select & Open the received Fax you'd like to Print. (This ensures ALL pages will be available)
    2. On the New Window displaying your Fax, Select the "Forward as Fax" Icon in the Top Header Bar.
    3. When the Forward Window Opens, you will see the Fax as a .tif attachment.
    4. *** IMPORTANT *** RIGHT-CLICK the attachment and Select Print.
    5. When the dialog box opens, Select Open. This will open the "Print Pictures" application displaying ALL pages of your Fax enabling you to Print accordingly.

    I found this MUCH easier to do than every other option previously provided. I HOPE THIS HELPS! :)

    This is exhausting I have the same thing happening in an office on all my Brother USB printers. Worked fine until one day it did not print any longer. And ideas would be welcome.

    Save the fax as "new"

    Right click and save the fax to your desktop as a TIF ..it will appear as one page, but they are all there.

    Once you choose "print as a PDF" all the pages will appear.

    我放棄用WFS內建的自動列印了. 後來找到一個軟體AUTOPRINT。可以將資料夾新增的TIF檔印出來. https://www.4-tech-engineering.com/autoprint.html

    I gave up using WFS's built-in automatic printing. Later I found a software AUTOPRINT. TIF files added to the folder can be automatically printed. https://www.4-tech-engineering.com/autoprint.html
