Installing Quick Link II Fax

Windows installation instructions

For your convenience, Quick Link II Fax comes on either a 3 1/2-inch or a
5 1/4-inch diskette; replacement disks or alternative sizes can be ordered
with the Replacement Disk Form at the end of this book (some versions may
arrive to you on 2 disks).  All the files on the Quick Link II Fax Install
disk are compressed and cannot be used until the Install program has been
run.  The Install program can be run from either the DOS prompt or with
the Windows RUN command.  The following steps will walk you through the
Installation process.

  1.  Turn on your computer.  If your computer boots into Windows
      automatically, jump ahead to step 3.  If your computer launches a
      menu program or shell, quit out of it and go to the DOS prompt.

  2.  Place the Quick Link II Fax diskette into the appropriate drive.  If
      you are installing from the A: drive, type A: INSTALL and press the
      ENTER key.  If you are installing from the B: drive, type B: INSTALL
      and press the Enter key.  The Install program will ask you what
      versions of Quick Link you want to install; they launch Windows in
      Standard Mode.  Jump ahead to step 4.  Alternatively, simply start
      Windows and go to 3.

  3.  To run the Install program from the Windows Program Manager, pull
      down the FILE menu and choose RUN.  At the Command Line field, type
      in A:INSTALL if the Quick Link II Fax Install disk is in drive A;
      type B:INSTALL if it is in the B drive.  Press the enter key or
      click OK.

  4.  Since you received the Win/DOS software combination, a dialog box
      will appear prompting you with which products you wish to install.
      Select the product combination you wish to install and continue.

  5.  The main installation catalog box appears on screen with the default
      directory C:\QL2FAXW as the install directory for Quick Link II
      Fax's main program files.  The Inbox and Outbox are sub-directories
      of the install directory.  To accept the defaults, simply press the
      Enter key or click the INSTALL button.

  6.  Insert the Quick Link II Fax Install disk #2 when prompted, if
      necessary.

  7.  The DEFAULT PRINTER dialog box appears, asking if you want the Quick
      Link II Fax Driver to be your Windows default printer driver.  Click
      NO if you want to keep your regular printer driver as the default.
      Click YES or press the Enter key if you want the Fax driver to be
      the default Windows printer.  This setting can be changed at any
      time with the Windows Control Panel.

  8.  When the installation is complete, a Quick Link II Fax Program Group
      is created in the Program Manager with the Quick Link II Fax Program
      icons inside.  There is also an icon labeled READ ME!, which
      contains important information and any changes that have occurred to
      the software since this manual was printed.  We recommend that you
      read it by double-clicking the READ ME! icon.  It can be printed
      from Notepad or Write for future reference.  Note that no icons are
      created for the DOS.

  9.  Remove the Quick Link II Fax disk from the floppy drive and put them
      in a safe place away from heat, dust, and magnetic fields.  This is
      also a good time to fill out the registration card and mail it in.
