HP 3100 and reduced fax baud rates

My HP 3100 Jetsuite software doesn't allow for reducing the fax baud rate
(as my VOIP company suggests). Are these machines hardwired to fax at
14,400 or 9,600, or can I use software such as Mightyfax or something else
to force a reduction in the baud rate?

So far he seems to be getting the replies such a post without
setting follow-ups, deserves. F'ups set.

First of all, I'm not using google, but X-news with a news service.
Secondly, whenever I try to set follow-ups, only a max of two groups is
allowed. For some queries, it would be nice to cross post to about 100
groups and about 150 tech boards at the same time. Unfortunately, it can't
be done.

I am thankful that Xnews doesn't let you do such an ugly thing.
There is a different between posting a followup (this is one) and
setting follow-ups, which direct followups to a specific place. My
sig line is not part of my followup, but simply general advice to
try to stem the foul flood of mispostings from googles broken
interface as used by newbies.

the reason for the cross post is to try to get as many suggestions as
possible. HP rarely has the answer to these things, as the usual customer
support person spends most of the time reading the FAQ's. The turnover
rate is high, and you usually get some foreigner in India. In the past,
I've found that the best advice is usually given by some network techie who
managed to write his own script in an ini file or some other method of
plugging up the hole.

Besides, I think HP charges for support per question. I'd rather buy an
external modem or internal card for that price.
