The multifunction Omnifax G5 ($1995) provides the functionality of a 14.4-Kbps plain-paper fax, a PC fax board, a laser-quality printer, a copier, and a scanner with optional OCR capability. The Omnifax can simultaneously scan one document, print another, and send or receive a third. The unit's fax capabilities include a 99-number auto-dialing feature, quick scanning into memory, auto-batching to group documents going to the same destination, broadcasting, and page retransmission. The 300-dpi print function works from any DOS or Windows application. You can use the PC fax board function to send a file from your attached PC or from a PC on a LAN. The unit lets you edit scanned documents and incoming fax messages on your PC. Depending on your application, you can rotate, scale, and clip documents on the PC, export image documents to Wi
ndows Paintbrush, or copy files to the Windows Clipboard.
