That’s correct. Fax server runs on unix variants with windows clients. This project must have not done windows since microsoft world probably does not have widely used open source fax servers.
In any case, as long as your windows solution drops files in a specific directory, you can handle inbound. You will need some application specific tinkering to handle outbound faxes for background outbound faxing. Otherwise you can have users use windows server application’s printer driver to print from openemr.

Hi,
There was another physician developer (David) whom was spending a lot of time preparing to improve the fax interface for his practical use:

He made some notes here:
http://www.open-emr.org/wiki/index.php/Code_-_Faxing
May make sense to ping him on this.

I have been using an Epson multifunction printer/fax/copy/scan device. When you actuate the print menu, you just print to the fax and send it from there. So anything you could send to a printer could be faxed instead. I was previously using an HP, but the Epson software seems to be much better and makes faxing stuff very easy. There is however still a problem with the reports area as far as getting attached PDF documents to print beyond the first page consistently.
