I have a 701C i use as a 24/7 printer server..

i did the winfax thing, but winfax does not like the 701 voice modem, so

i used an IBM voice/fax modem, that it DID like..
the audio was very poor with that modem, however..

all in all, it should all work, but i would not look for great audio
quality..
