Can someone help me figure out how to configure the Faxes In/ Faxes Out/ Scanner In section in OpenEMR. (It is under Miscellaneous in the Tree View).  I did not find it in the manual.
Thank you

Rema Dhingra.

You’ll find some configuration parameters and associated comments for those in interface/globals.php.  For faxing you’ll need to find and study the Hylafax documentation and get an appropriate fax/modem.

how is this set up?  i want to use an ASP set up, so i’m hosting the install of OpenEMR on a webserver.  do i need a dedicated fax line for faxes to come in and go out for that install?  i don’t know why, but until now, i assumed the faxing all done via the internet.

With a remote server your scanner would need to be able to deposit its files into a network destination, perhaps via ftp.

An internet fax solution would be nice, and would take some design and programming to interface with OpenEMR.

I hear rumors that Jeremy Wallace (OpenEMR Support) has code for that that is nearly complete… supports two different Internet fax solutions …
