    when you print with the LAN-Fax driver. To solve this problem, change the
    display settings on the "Display Properties" of the "Control Panel".

 3. When the LAN-Fax dialog box is shown on the computer screen, some
    applications' windows may not be redrawn.

 4. When the LAN-Fax dialog box is shown on the computer screen, some
    applications' status may become "not responding".

 5. Some documents may cause a general protection fault when printing.

 6. Some display drivers may cause the document to print incorrectly.

 7. The colors on the printed document may differ from the colors on the
    computer screen.

    Microsoft. If help is clicked on a driver that doesn't have the Vista help
    modules, a prompt will be displayed with a link to WinHlp32.exe.
