Summary :
In English: Changing the device type of a telefax output device in spool administration may cause errors, incorrect results, or no effect. Formats for sending faxes from R/3 vary depending on the release and fax system. Central fax solutions via SAPcomm Server for R/3 up to 2.2 support only ASCII format unless the fax system accepts text commands. For R/3 as of 3.0, any device type with a corresponding printer language is supported. Local fax solutions using SAPLPD+SAPFAX.DLL and WinFax PRO provide the same formatting options as SAPLPD for printers. Refer to Notes 19302, 18580, 14957, and 09119 for configuration instructions.
