To use Wordstar with The Modem or Modem Plus you must first have
installed the printer driver for the  IBM Proprinter or the Epson
FX family of printers (the FX-80 will work best). See your
Wordstar manual for instrucions on adding a printer driver to
your current Wordstar system.

                        Using the Hot Key

Note: Wordstar 5.5 uses the default HotKey (Alt F) to access file
options. To use the Hot Key with Wordstar, please re-configure
your HotKey for a different key combination (such as Alt X).

To use the HotKey, do the following:

Load/Create the document you wish to send as a fax.

Enable the HotKey by pressing the Hot Key key combination.

Press Alt F (Wordstar's file menu) and select "Print a File".

Enter the filename for the file you wish to print.

Set "Printer name" to Epson FX.

Set "Redirect output to port" to LPT1.

Exit Wordstar. PFAX will run the PHKSEND program automatically
and your file will be converted to a fax and sent.

NOTE:  HotKey is known to not come up automatically with DOS 4.0
or higher. If you have our Modem Plus installed in a machine with
4.0 or higher, you will have to execute the PHKSEND manually. To
do this, at the DOS prompt type PHKSEND and press return.
