	As far as I am aware Apple is not working on their software to make it 
background compatible.  If you want this feature immediately, I would recommend
that you inquire about BackFax from Solutions, inc.

	The reason that it takes SOOOOOOO long to print is that your FAX documents
are stored as 216dpi BITMAPS - and therefore will take a while to print. One
solution is to turn off smoothing of bitmaps in your page setup.
