Compressent Corp. of San Jose, California, said that its ChromaFax Receiver 1.1 color fax software is now
available worldwide.
It is made to enable PC users with fax modems to receive
color faxes direct to their desktops.
For people who own a Hewlett-Packard OfficeJet Series 700 all-in-one
machine, the ChromaFax Receiver software will let them send color fax
documents to any PC user with a fax modem.
“The HP Office Jet Series 700 all-in-one broke new ground in the
industry by adopting the color fax standard and bringing color
capabilities to small office and home office users,” said John McCracken, vice president of OEM Sales for Compressent. “Using Compressent’s
ChromaFax Receiver software, HP Office Jet 700 all-in-one users can
send color faxes to more people.”
ChromaFax follows the ITU-T30e international standard for transmitting
and receiving color documents via fax. The standard is designed to
ensure accurate reproduction of the color fax at the receiving end.
“Compressent’s ChromaFax software opens
the door for the widespread use of color fax,” said Commented Steve Sakumoto, marketing manager of
HP’s All-In-One Division. “It expands use of the
OfficeJet 700 all-in-one’s color-faxing capabilities since those using
ChromaFax Receiver can receive color faxes through their fax
modems.”
Users may download ChromaFax Receiver software free of charge
from the vendor’s Web site.
